Lossless reduction for js, css, jpg, png, gif

Install

install ruby + rubygems
sudo gem install reduce

Usage

Options

-o, --overwrite                  overwrite file
-v, --version                    Show Version
-h, --help                       Show this.

Ruby

  • uses YUI compressor to minify css/js
