DESCRIPTION

This plugin provides auto-compilation and on-wire compression of your application's CSS and Javascript. It is enabled by default, unless your ConfigFileVersion is greater or equal than 2.

It also supports js minifier, you will need to specify the full path. The jsmin can be obtained from http://www.crockford.com/javascript/jsmin.html.

Note that you will need to use ConfigFileVersion 2 to be able to configure jsmin feature.

The gzip configuration directive, which defaults to enabled, instructs Jifty to transparently gzip css and js files as they're served if the client indicates it supports that feature.

skipped_js is a list of js that you don't want to compress for some reason.
