Is is there for a very long time:
...
%c The string returned by the external program, specified in PRO-
GRAM (This does not work within the PROGRAM field for the obvi-
ous reason.)
A single part of the string, separated by a space character may
be selected by specifying the part number as an attribute: %c{N}
If the number is followed by the + char this part plus all
remaining parts of the result string are substituted: %c{N+}
...
The count of characters to insert may be limited by specifying the for-
mat length value. For example, ’%3s{file}’ will only insert the first
three characters of the sysfs attribute.
