Joining contents in multiple lines to a single line

I do have a file with contents splited into multiple lines

Code:
ADSLHLJASHGLJSKAGHJJGAJSLGAHLSGHSAKBV
AJHALHALHGLAGLHGBJVFBJVLFDHADAH
GFJAGJAGAJFGAKGAKGFAK
AJHFAGAKAGAGKAKAKGKAGFGJDGDJJDGJDJDFAG
...
...
....
100's of lines

I would like to rearrange the content of this file so it will be a single line

Code:

control  character is initially . (dot).  The formatted output is
produced on standard output.  The formatting commands are  listed

negative change from the current value.  Initial values for where

  .ix n   Same as .in but continue filling output on current line.
  .li n   Literal text on next n lines.  Copy to output unmodified.
