This directory contains tools used in the packaging or deployment of OpenLayers. Javascript minimizing tools: * jsmin.c, jsmin.py: jsmin.py is a direct translation of the jsmin.c code into Python. jsmin.py will therefore run anyplace Python runs... but at significantly slower speed. * shrinksafe.py shrinksafe.py calls out to a third party javascript shrinking service. This creates file sizes about 4% smaller (as of commit 501) of the OpenLayers code. However, this also has the side effect of making you dependant on the web service -- and since that service sometimes goes dead, it's risky to depend on it.
