sed script to combine blank lines?

[David Sherman]

Some versions of UNIX (including 4.1BSD) include a program
call ssp(1) which does this; it's a bit faster than the
parallel awk script.

Also, if you know your text doesn't contain duplicate lines
(nroff output almost always qualifies, for example), good
old uniq(1) will do it.
