Truncate.js

My very first jQuery plugin! It started out as an exercise, but turned into a fun little something that I can see myself using someday.

The function is called by grabbing a div using jQuery and applying the truncate function to it:

$('poem').truncate();

You can pass in an object with the following options (these are the defaults):

{ new_box        : true,
  lines_visible  : 3,
  line_height_px : 20,
  more_text      : 'more',
  less_text      : 'less' }

To style the contents of the truncated box, use class truncate for the box and toggle-link for the toggle link.

Open index.html for a quick demo.
