add a semicolon in the beigin for minifying

[pyrsmk]

Why is it needed?

[jabez128]

for example, if you have two self-invoking function:

a.js
(function(){ //do something a})()

b.js
(function(){//do something b})()

when you concatenate the two js files together, the result file will look like :

(function(){ //do something a})()(function(){//do something b})()

You have two statements without separator. This happens when you cat files together and then minify them.

so if you put a semicolon in the beginning, the result file will look like:

;(function(){ //do something a})();(function(){//do something b})()

it will be safe and sound, especially in large project.

Interesting... I should do the same modification to my other libraries. Thanks!
