We have been given a couple of tomatoe plants that we would like to keep on
a south facing kitchen window sill. The height of the window is 32 inches
and they are already two thirds the height of the window frame.

Not knowing what tomato plants they are we dont know how high exactly they
will grow, but we think they will easily outgrow the window frame.

Since we want to keep them there in that location, are there any tips for a
novice on pruning, other than just cut the top off; when it reaches the top
of the frame?

Would it make sense to try bending them over, to try to keep some of the
length of the plant?

I'm growing three plants in the same situation, although I have 42"
headroom. I intend to pinch out the new growth above the third
truss of flowers opens.
