< Previous Post - Next Post >

Is there a way I can replace the next post / prev post test at the top of a listing page with the actual titles of those posts ? and also I would need to truncate the length of that title so that it fitted within the 50% half of the page top per se

so instead it might look like

< How Freddy fell off a log ... - How Mary Jumped a rope ... >

type thing

Thanks
Pete
