OK Albert, thanks for the suggestion.
Version: 1.04 - 17-Jul-2009 - shorten_twitter function changed to a shorten_message function that can shorten emails and twitters
- added two more settings:
// number of characters to attempt to shorten twitter message to
$twitter_shorten = ‘140’;
// number of characters to attempt to shorten email message to
$email_shorten = ‘120’;
