  Description     : JavaScript "compression" system

ShrinkSafe is a JavaScript "compression" system. It can typically reduce the
size of your scripts by a third or more, depending on your programming style.
.
Many other tools also shrink JavaScript files, but ShrinkSafe is different.
Instead of relying on brittle regular expressions, ShrinkSafe is based on
Rhino, a JavaScript interpreter. This allows ShrinkSafe to transform the source
of a file with much more confidence that the resulting script will function
identically to the file you uploaded.
.
Best of all, ShrinkSafe will never change a public variable or API. That means
that you can drop the compressed version of your JavaScript into your pages
without changing the code that uses it.
