merge multiple lines from flat file

Hi,

I have a tab delimited flat file like this:

189     Guide de lutilisateur sur lappel conf�rence � trois au moyen d'adaptateurs t�l�phoniques        <TABLE><TBODY><TR><TD><DIV class=subheader>La fonction Appel conf�rence � trois </DIV></TD>
\
<TD><?php print $navTree["features"]["3_way_calling"]["name"];?> vous permet de tenir un appel conf�rence simultan�ment avec deux autres parties. </TD></TR>
\
<TR>
\
<TD height=10></TD></TR>
\
<TR>
\

How do I merge all these lines into one single line? I searched through the forum, but did not find anything helpful.

TIA,

what lines do you want to 'concatinate'?
ALL the lines?
Lines with a single '\' appearing on a traling line?
Something else?

Hi vgersh,

Thanks for the reply. I was looking to join everything into one line, irrespective of whether there is a '\' or not.

TIA,

tr -d '\n' < myFile

Thanks a lot for the command vgersh!!
