Luzifer / short_path

short_path is a very small utility to shorten the current path into a less readable but more useful version to be included in shell prompts. Especially Go developers know paths like /home/luzifer/workspaces/private/go/src/github.com/Luzifer/short_path which already takes up most of the space on the prompt. This tool shortens the path to ~/w/p/g/s/g/Luzifer/short_path which is much shorter and you should be able to know from that what the elements are.
