JavaScript function to dynamically crop text
// Look for all elements with a clip class, and remove words form them
// until the text fits in the available space. This requires the element
// to have a fixed (maximum) width and height.
function cropText(root) {
var victims = root.querySelectorAll(".clip"),
rest, html, victim, $victim, words, cropped;
for (var i=0; i<victims.length; ++i) {
$victim=$(victim=victims[i]);
// We can only measure when the item is visible, but make it transparent

Markdown rendering in Chameleon
# This module allows you to use markdown in Chameleon templates from pyramid.
#
# Markdown rendering is only down for text that is translatable, and has its
# message context set to ``markdown``. This is a complete abuse of the translation
# system, but currently provides the simplest way to get markdown running in
# Chameleon.
