Looking for a whitespace stripper for HomeSite

Hi folks,

I have googled dilligently, but cannot seem to find a HomeSite add-on
to solve my problem. I have a ton of old HTML pages on my website from
1996-98. These were written when I didn't realize how much space
whitespace could actually take up (in one folder, I saved a whopping
21kb when I took out the whitespace).

While HomeSite will let you find and replace double spacing, for the
amount of docs that I have, it is quite a cumbersome task. I have been
able to do some find and replacing for large blank spaces, but I have
a lot, and I do mean a lot of files to go through.

Are there any utilities I can download to aid in my chore?

Much thanks,
Christine

Any programming language with file I/O. Just recursively write something to
edit the directories file by file. PHP would work well if you have to do it
all online.
