I am testing Tiddlywiki 5.2.0 p with different plugins I use. Today I noticed Uglify (Uglify — Plugin compression made easy (flibbles.github.io) <https://flibbles.github.io/tw5-uglify/>) which is used to compress JS and make TW a smaller html works in reverse order! I mean using Uglify makes TW 5.2.0 single html files with basic plugins (codemirror, highlight.js, katex,...) get larger in size! Strangely I do the unglifing several times, each time I get a bigger file! This is not the case with TW 5.1.23
@flibbles would you please have a look!
