I want to remove repeating spaces in a field. I can write a brute

already invented this wheel.
Basically all I want to do is reduce all multiple instances of
spaces in a field to a single space. There could be double, triple,
or more spaces together and I want to reduce them all to just one.
I can think of a repeating loop that replaces two spaces with one
and just do it until there aren't any more or do a series of
replaces four spaces with one, then three spaces with one, then two
spaces with one but neither of these seem very elegant.
