+## Abbreviation When Too Wide
+
+Prompt modules can optionally return a callback function for use in case the
+terminal is not wide enough for the full prompt to be displayed.  If the prompt
+is too wide, flexprompt calls each module's callback function to get an
+abbreviated form of the module and uses that instead to help the prompt fit.
+
+To provide a callback function, the prompt module should return a table with a
+`condense_callback` field:
+
+```lua
+return {
+    -- Normal results; text and colors.
+    "full module text here",
+    "green",
+    "black",
+    -- Callback when short form is needed.
+    condense_callback = function ()
+        return {
+            "mini text",
+            "green",
+            "black",
+        }
+    end
+}
+```
