gollark: It is important to note that it also makes the minified output contain a potatOS installer.

gollark: Thoughts?

gollark: A similar function is available in potatOS via the `potatOS.minify` function.

gollark: This is possibly the shortest minification program ever designed, *even though* it also bundles potatOS with itself.

gollark: Yes.
