NAME

ssp − make output single spaced

SYNOPSIS

ssp [ name ... ]

DESCRIPTION

Ssp removes extra blank lines and causes all output to be single spaced.  It can be used directly, or as a filter after nroff or other text formatting operations. 

EXAMPLE

nroff -ms filea fileb | ssp >> filec

would prepare the files with the −ms macro package, then single space the output and direct it to filec. 

The ssp command can be duplicated with the −s option to the cat command.
