tr "\012" " "

... either in a pipeline or redirecting input (<) should do the trick also.
Of course, if you didn't want the space, ...

tr -d "\012"

... assuming, of course, a UNIX-style newline-ended text file. You'd have
to add or change other 'record separators' of your own, but it probably uses
the least resources (and least typing ;-).

I'd like to know what can I do to convert a whole text with
many lines into one single line .

Is there any command to do that ? We canīt use "vi" because
the file is very large and the process is scheduled .

Thanks.
