2005-10-10  Christian Persch  <chpe@cvs.gnome.org>

	* lib/ephy-string.c: (ephy_string_blank_chr),
	(ephy_string_shorten):
	* lib/ephy-string.h:

	Bring back ephy_string_shorten.

	* src/ephy-tab.c: (ephy_tab_file_monitor_cb), (ephy_tab_set_title):

	Shorten overlong tab titles, hard. Increase reload delay slightly.
	Strip whitespace from tab title before determining if it's empty.
