I agree with you. However, shortening _every_ URL _every_ time seems to
be the common practice for Twitter clients, and that's the behaviour
implied by the man page.
I view that as a nuisance to the Internet, and try to avoid it.
Obviously the size limit on twitter necessitates it sometimes. So
twidge does it only as necessary.
I would accept:
* A patch to the manpage to make this clear
* A patch that adds a setting for shorten all URLs, defaulting to
false, and documents it
I do not want to just make it shorten everything with no option to
disable that. I would view this as a bug, putting links in the hands of
third parties with no need.
