     Name
          rmb - remove extra blank lines from a file


     Syntax
          /usr/bin/rmb


     Description
          /usr/bin/rmb acts as a filter to remove any series of  blank
          lines greater than two lines in length.  This means that all
          long sequences of blank lines will be reduced to  two  blank
          lines.   This  is particularly useful for cleaning nroff(CT)
          output of blank lines before putting the output in a file.


     See Also
          nroff(CT), man(C)


     Notes
          Because /usr/bin/rmb is a filter, it must be used  within  a
          piped command sequence as shown in the following examples:

          cat infile | /usr/bin/rmb > outfile

          nroff infile | /usr/bin/rmb > outfile

          It cannot be used in the form /usr/bin/rmb filename.
