 I tried looking for something here on trac and found and sorry for the
 English.

 The the_excerpt does not have native functions to limit the amount of
 characters. Something useful when you have to use different amounts of
 characters on each page.

 Example the_excerpt (50, words)

 for use on front page

 and the_excerpt (100, characters)

 for use in category.php

 There is something ever talked about it?
