 $("#container a").shrinkUrls({
   size:<number>,           // max size (default 25)
   include:'<regex>'       // regular expression a link text must
                           // match to be considered
   exclude:'<regex>'       // regular expression a link text must
                           // not match to be considered
   whitespace:<boolean>,   // true: even shrink if there's whitespace
                           // in the link text (default false)
   trunc:<head|middle|tail> // position where to insert the ellipsis
 });
