NAME
       rmnl - remove extra new-line characters from file

SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
       removes	all  blank  lines  from a file (except at beginning of file as
       explained below), and is useful for removing excess  white  space  from
       files  for display on a CRT terminal.  Groups of two or more successive
       \n (new-line) characters are reduced to a single \n  character,	effec‐
       tively  eliminating  all blank lines in the file that one or more blank
       lines at the beginning of a file remain as a single blank line.

       To remove redundant blank  lines	 rather	 than  all  blank  lines,  use
       ssp(1).

       To  remove all blank lines from a file including beginning of file, use
       piped to or piped to

EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
   International Code Set Support
       Single- and multi-byte character code sets are supported.
