URL string will be longer in future

[Rplus]

If select all now, it will take about 900 chars in pokedex string in URL.
And it is okay now when it is not longer than 2000 chars (for IE).

It uses Pokedex in URl search string.
There are pokedex: 23 or with isotope number 23_3,
and they concate with dash -.

To compress that, common js library like lz-string is not a good idea, it will get many special chars.
Because the string should run encodeURIComponent before put it into URL, and URL will be longer when it use special chars.

I think a shorten solution with toString(36):

var ids = ['2', '63', '104_1'];
var str = ids
  .map(i =>
    i.split('_').map(j => (+ j).toString(36))
  )
  .map(k => k.join('_'))
  .join('-');

But it might be ugly, so…

I enjoy that I can manually see/edit.build URLs.. any chance that an ellipsis could be used for runs?

Option ; on a mac.. and they work in github URLs:

https://github.com/Rplus/Pokemon-shiny/compare/master…vue?expand=1 (note, that isn't three .)

Of course, I haven't looked for a tool that automatically knows when to shorten 1,2,3,4,5 to 1…5

It is okay for using …, and it is possible for parsing ….
But the IDs are not all number.
Sometime, ID needs to identify different isotope with underscore: _.

And the second, there are two parts for pokedex: own & registered, the numbers will not be continuous.

Now, we use url Search-String to share, and save that with LocalStorage.
