For the record, this is the testing that I did, which works fine by me.

$data = "15   65\n35 6\n445   34,546 59034584\n54 3,450 805;5409      
+ 8534\n\nStuff...";

print ($data);

print ("\nChainging now\n\n");

$data =~ s/\s+|\n/ /g;

print ($data);

Sorry if I misunderstood the question, and I'll take the hit on the greedy statement, perhaps I should have said greedy only for space characters, which is what is wanted....
