I just posted in this thread:
http://www.ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/forum/developer/preventing_caching_of_some_template
As you can see, the URLs in the forum message are shortened, with "..." in the middle.
Very cool!
Can someone tell me, how this is done? An operator probably, but which?

It's done in the autolink template operator which is part of 3.2, the fix for the text shortening is present in 3.2-2 (which is out pretty soon).

Example:
{$attribute.content|autolink(60)}
Shortens links larger than 60 characters and highlights them.
