NAME
     ssp - produces single spaced output

SYNOPSIS
     ssp [-] [name]...

ARGUMENTS
     -    Removes all blank lines.

     name Specifies the name of the input file to be affected.

DESCRIPTION
     ssp removes extra blank lines from its input, compressing
     two or more blank lines into one.  Note that if a line
     contains any characters at all (including spaces or tabs),
     then ssp does not considered it to be blank.  ssp can be
     used directly, or as a filter after nroff or other text
     formatting operations.

EXAMPLES
     The command:

        nroff -ms filea fileb | ssp > filec

     would nroff the files with the -ms macro package, then
     single space the output and put it into filec.

FILES
     /usr/bin/ssp
