[plug] Need help with sed

[Arie Hol]

I am currently processing a large number of files using sed;

I am running sed as a series of commands from a shell script

The problem I have is :

sed is leaving "blank" lines where it removes the 'target text' - many of 
these blank lines contain tabs and spaces (whitespace).

I can remove some of the  whitespace but I still end up with blank lines.

Is there a sed command I can use to remove any/all lines which appear to 
only have whitespace or are just blank lines?



TIA

Regards Arie
