SYNOPSIS

rmnl

HP-UX COMPATIBILITY

DESCRIPTION

Rmnl is useful for removing excess white space from files for display on a crt terminal.  Groups of more than one \n character are compressed to one \n character, effectively removing all blank lines.  This is used by the man command. 

Ssp(1) can be used to remove redundant blank lines, rather than all blank lines.
