Abbreviation
Allowed words are used for automatic abbreviation of message lines and incident messages, when necessary. If abbr is not shorter than the word, it will be ignored.
On lines which are too wide, a single word is chosen and replaced with its abbreviated form. If it's still too wide, the process repeats. If a message doesn't fit after all possible words have been abbreviated, it is discarded.
