3555@node Automatic Shortening in the GNU Name System
3556@subsubsection Automatic Shortening in the GNU Name System
3557
3558This page describes a possible option for 'automatic name shortening',
3559which you can choose to enable with the GNU Name System.
3560
3561When GNS encounters a name for the first time, it can use the 'NICK'
3562record of the originating zone to automatically generate a name for the
3563zone. If automatic shortening is enabled, those auto-generated names will
3564be placed (as private records) into your personal 'shorten' zone (to
3565prevent confusion with manually selected names).
3566Then, in the future, if the same name is encountered again, GNS will
3567display the shortened name instead (the first time, the long name will
3568still be used as shortening typically happens asynchronously as looking up
3569the 'NICK' record takes some time). Using this feature can be a convenient
3570way to avoid very long @code{.gnu} names; however, note that names from
3571the shorten-zone are assigned on a first-come-first-serve basis and should
3572not be trusted. Furthermore, if you enable this feature, you will no
3573longer see the full delegation chain for zones once shortening has been
3574applied.
