Well, I don't know what Tekkmage needs it for, though, he'd have to chime in on that, I was just trying to reproduce the issue. It hadn't otherwise been an issue for me personally. Although I supposed if HL is allowing for a 50 character skill name presumably you'd want it to be able to print all 50 instead of cutting off at 42?
I'd never used a custom skill like that before, though, but I would agree that the "Custom Whatever Skill:" part is probably pretty redundant. It may not show what the skill is based on without that but I don't think the other skills do that on the printout anyway. Then again appending an initial in parenthesis for those might not be a bad idea, so something like "Athletics (A)", for example. It doesn't come up much, mostly just when leveling up the skills, but there are a few other situations where linked skills might be affected by something where that might be useful to have.
