[TYPO3-ttnews] realurl: simplifying the url

[Claudio Strizzolo]

Hi all
I'm trying to find a way to shorten the URLs generated by tt_news+realurl.
At present my single news are indexed as

http://www.example.com/news/single_news_view/archive/2009/01/article/
title.html

single_news_view is the name of my page containing the tt_news plugin to 
display a single news item.
I'd like to remove the "archive" and "article" levels, if possible:

http://www.example.com/news/single_news_view/2009/01/title.html

but this might be acceptable too:

http://www.example.com/news/2009/01/single_news_view/title.html

As an extra point: might the whole "archive/2009/01/article" be somehow 
replaced by the category containing the news item? In my case every news 
is assigned to only one category, so this might be a good result too:

http://www.example.com/news/single_news_view/category/title.html

Any hints?

My TS setup:

plugin.tt_news {
  dontUseBackPid = 1
  useHRDates = 1
  useHRDatesSingle = 1
  useHRDatesSingleWithoutDay = 1
}
