Compressing my code

Can someone give me an example of compressing, say, a verb or whatever that goes out to five different tabs of code? I really want to compress all of my Byond code into one single line. My cartridge classic entry is a little too big, and I need to compress it. Thank-you!

What you mean by "compressing" your code?

Removing white-space and using #define to shorthand basically any proc you call multiple times.

Save yourself the trouble and write a script to do this. First convert tabs to { } structure. Then tokenize the code, find the var and proc names that take the biggest character count (and can be replaced w/ a macro), and replace them if it's cost-effective.

You can still manually open the code downloaded into the BYOND directory.
