  22.                         <code>stdout</code>.  The reason I wrote this script
  23.                         was that the other HTML minifiers I used were
  24.                         over-optimizing the HTML, causing validation errors.

  27.                         I don't use this script any more, as my new design is
  28.                         based on static XHTML5 being served. (Lighttpd can
  29.                         compress static resources but not the output streams
  30.                         from CGI scripts.)
