title: Minify / Obfuscate PHP Code
body: <p>I use <a href="http://haxe.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Haxe</a> to generate PHP code. (This means you write you code in the Haxe language and get a bunch of php files after compiling.) Today a customer told me that he needs a new feature on a old project made with Haxe. He also told me that he altered some small things on the code for his own needs. Now I first have port his changes to my Haxe code and then add the new feature, because otherwise his changes will be overwritten by the next time I compile the project.</p>
  
  <p>To prevent that this happens again I am looking for some kind of program that minifies / obfuscates the PHP code. The goal is to make the code unreadable / uneditable as possible.<br>
  The ideal tool would run under Linux and could process whole folders and all it containing files.</p>
  
  <p>Anybody any suggestions?</p>
