Abbreviation
Allowed words are used for automatic abbreviation of message lines and incident messages, when necessary.
On lines which are too wide, a single word is chosen and replaced with its abbreviated form. If it's still too wide, the process repeats. If a message doesn't fit after all possible words have been abbreviated, it is discarded.
