Offline Code Compression -- SublimeText2 with Reg Replace Plugin

Both files should be in the User folder

In reg_replace.sublime-settings

"compress_space": {
    "find": "\t|\n",
    "replace": "",
    "greedy": true,
    "case": false,
    "scope_filter": 
    [
        "source.c, source.js, source.java, source.css",
        "-comment", "-!string"
    ]
},
"compress_comments": {
    "find": ".*?\n",
    "replace": "",
    "greedy": true,
    "case": false,
    "scope_filter": ["comment"]
},
"compress_opening_brackets": {
    "find": "(\\[|\\(|\\{)\\s+",
    "replace": "\\1",
    "greedy": true,
    "case": false,
    "scope_filter": 
    [
        "source.c, source.js, source.java, source.css",
        "-comment", "-!string"
    ]
},
"compress_closing_brackets": {
    "find": "\\s+(\\)|\\}|\\])",
    "replace": "\\1",
    "greedy": true,
    "case": false,
    "scope_filter": 
    [
        "source.c, source.js, source.java, source.css",
        "-comment", "-!string"
    ]
},
"compress_special": {
    "find": "\\s*(:|;|,)\\s*",
    "replace": "\\1",
    "greedy": true,
    "case": false,
    "scope_filter": 
    [
        "source.c, source.js, source.java, source.css",
        "-comment", "-!string"
    ]
}

In Default.sublime-commands

{
    "caption": "Reg Replace: Compress Code",
    "command": "reg_replace",
    "args": {
        "replacements": [
            "compress_comments",
            "compress_space",
            "compress_special",
            "compress_opening_brackets",
            "compress_closing_brackets"
        ]
    }
}

These have only been tested with CSS and JS files.
They should work with C and java files as well.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

If you ask me why I would compress code when I'm offline, I don't know, I had the idea when I was on the plane. I know this might be useless. :)
