我如何压缩()多行的文件，这是由制表符分隔，以便转置文件的内容？

def compress_file(file_path):
    # 读取文件内容
    with open(file_path, 'r') as file:
        lines = file.readlines()

    # 替换制表符为空格
    lines = [line.replace('\t', ' ') for line in lines]

    # 重新组合每行并用制表符分隔
    compressed_content = '\t'.join(lines)

    # 写入压缩后的文件
    compressed_file_path = file_path + '.compressed'
    with open(compressed_file_path, 'w') as compressed_file:
        compressed_file.write(compressed_content)

    return compressed_file_path
