Thanks acamso, 

 

But with regex

\s+

you are matching whitespace character which is space, tab, newline, and carriage return

 

with your function above, all newline and carriage return also will be replace with space right ?

How to remove extra spaces only, in every line, without removing tab, newline, and carriage return ?

What do you mean by "extra spaces"?

What do you mean by "extra spaces"?

 

leading spaces, trailing spaces, and space more than one between words.

Basically you might want to use a "replace" function or command. You can search for plain text patterns like "  " (double space) and replace it with a single space " " or even with "$nothing" to replace the found pattern with nothing. You could also use some RegEx Replace function, if it better suits your needs. You can execute multiple replace commands/functions in a sequence.

There is a bot bank function called "Clean Text", this seems to do what you want to achieve: http://wiki.ubotstudio.com/wiki/Clean_Text

 

You might also want to use "Trim" http://wiki.ubotstudio.com/wiki/Trim

Yes this function is intended for a string without new lines. I'll make one with new lines included.
