This seems to partially work. It works fine for lines that have a tag <Some tag> but it causes unintended side effect. It also does lines that don't have tag in it.
Ex.
I am fine. This is line 200
It becomes:
Iamfine.Thisisline200
Is there any way to get around this? Let me expand the example a little further.
Ex.
< T AG 1> Hello, how are you doing?
<Tag 2> I am doing fine.
This is a test < T A G 3> I
am doing this to test how to
get rid of spaces on part of a
line.
I just want to find a way to only get rid of spaces between the < and the > and nothing else on that line and nothing else on lines that don't have < and >.

NAME
fixnt - Filter for the Windows NT postscript printer driver.
SYNOPSIS
fixnt < BADFILE.ps > GOODFILE.ps
DESCRIPTION
The Windows NT postscript driver has a tendency to make broken postscript files, that are incompatible with psutils. fixnt is a filter
that fixes these problems, allowing the use of psnup(1).
The filter takes the broken postscript file on stdin, and outputs a fixed postscript file on stdout. It has no other form for invocation
and takes no options on the command-line.
OPTIONS
fixnt takes no options.
BUGS
fixnt does not check for NTPSOct94. For a workaround, use a sed(1) command to replace 'NTPSOct94' with 'NTPSOct95', like so:
sed 's/NTPSOct94/NTPSOct95/g'
This is particularly important for Windows NT 3.5 users.
AUTHOR
fixnt was written by Holger Bauer <Holger.Bauer@topmail.de>, Michael Rath <rath@itsm.uni-stuttgart.de>, and Akim Demaille
<demaille@inf.enst.fr>.
REPORTING BUGS
Report bugs to the Authors, but avoid sending large postscript files.
Patches are always welcome; send to <bauer@itsm.uni-stuttgart.de>.
