How to translate multiple spaces into a single space using tr command?
I am trying to read a txt file and trying to translate multiples spaces into single spaces so the file is more organized, but whenever I try the command:
Code:
tr ' ' ' ' w.txt
The output is:
Code:
tr: extra operand `w.txt'
Try `tr --help' for more information.

gappletviewer
GAPPLETVIEWER(1) GNU GAPPLETVIEWER(1)NAME
gappletviewer - Load and runs an applet
SYNOPSIS
appletviewer [OPTION]... URL...
appletviewer [OPTION]... -code CODE
appletviewer [OPTION]... -plugin INPUT,OUTPUT
DESCRIPTION
The appletviewer tool loads and runs an applet.
Use the first form to test applets specified by tag. The URL should resolve to an HTML document from which the appletviewer will extract
applet tags. The APPLET, EMBED and OBJECT tags are supported. If a given document contains multiple applet tags, all the applets will be
loaded, with each applet appearing in its own window. Likewise, when multiple URLs are specified, each applet tag instance is given its
own window. If a given document contains no recognized tags the appletviewer does nothing.
appletviewer http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/
Use the second form to test an applet in development. This form allows applet tag attributes to be supplied on the command line. Only one
applet may be specified using the -code option. The -code option overrides the URL form -- any URLs specified will be ignored.
appletviewer -code Test.class -param datafile,data.txt
gcjwebplugin uses the third form to communicate with the appletviewer through named pipes.
