[topicmapmail] variantName for resourceRef?

[Ashish Mahabal]

Hi,

In some of my topic maps, I have rather long URLs as resourceRefs since I
pass CGI-BIN URLs using parameters as parameters to another fully
quoted CGI-BIN URL. These look too verbose when displayed completely.
An example can be seen at:
http://avyakta.caltech.edu:8090/omnigator/models/topic_complete.jsp?tm=galaxies_s.xtm&id=astrostat
under occurrence instances. (This topic map allows one to explore
parameters in different astronomical catalogs, and through this
external reference also allows one to run some statistical functions on
choice columns of the astronomical catalogs.)

Is there a way to shorten what is displayed by somehow using a fit-all
string like "Astrostats" instead of the whole URL?
