This is a script I wrote back 2006 that reduces the file size for CSS files by removing unnecessary whitespace and comments. It’s also capable of taking such compacted CSS file, and re-indent it to make it readable. For example it would take the following CSS:
/* sample css */
* {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
/* define style for the logo */
#header .logo {
float: left;
/* another comment */
}
and turn it into:
*{ margin:0px; padding:0px;}#header .logo{ float:left;}
which is an equivalent but much shorter CSS code. It can also reindent it back to:
*{
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
#header .logo{
float: left;
}
