> Allow to chop the output of the values to be able to scan a table for 
> specific rows and columns but without having the shell dump all the content 
> of the cell value as it can potentially be very large. I suggest a hash 
> called MAXLENGTH that can be added to the commands. For example:
> get 'docs', 'ABCDE', { COLUMNS => 'contents:', MAXLENGTH => 150 }
> and 
> scan 'docs', { COLUMNS => 'contents:', MAXLENGTH => 150 }
