You can use substr(), example code:

echo substr("string of 100 characters ore more...", -5); // re...
echo substr("string of 100 characters ore more...", 0, -5); // string of 100 characters ore mo

$smarty = new Smarty;
$smarty->assign('name', substr('george smith', 0, -3));
$smarty->display('index.tpl');

Look here in example #1 for negative start or length in example #2 (depending on which part you want to return) but be sure to check if the string is actually larger then 100 characters (with strlen()) before you do this.
