NAME

ssp − limit to single spacing

SYNOPSIS

ssp [ − ] [ file ...  ]

DESCRIPTION

Ssp compresses consecutive blank lines to at most one blank line to produce more compact output for a CRT or to save paper on the printer.  If the optional − is given ssp is even more zealous, getting rid of all empty lines. 

Ssp is useful for compressing text with blank lines onto a CRT, and is used by man(1).
