So I'd like to take $input, replace any number of blank space or newlines that are consecutive and replace them with a single blank. I.e. I will list a blank space as b and a newline as n: If input is: bbbbbTEXTHEREbbbnnnbnMOREbEVENMORE Then output should be: bTEXTHEREbMOREbEVENMORE I imagine this would be handled by a simple regular expression call, but I'm no pro with them yet. Any help?
