Umbraco - Trim last five characters in current page url

Question

Im getting the url of the current page using @CurrentPage.Url

It returns http://hostname/abcdefgh/

I wanted to trim out the last 5 characters of the URL

Req. URL http://hostname/abcd as the last five characters 'efgh/' is removed.

I tried using @umbraco.library.TruncateString(testString,-5,"") property to trim, but was unsuccessful.

Im new to umbraco. Any help would be highly appreciated.

I'd be interested to know the reason for doing this. Using the Remove method worked for me:

@{
    string url = CurrentPage.Url;
    url = url.Remove(url.Length - 5);
}
