Putting a string on a single line

Often times text is written on multiple lines for the sake of clarity. Sometimes these lines need to be consolidated to a single line. This happens to me a lot with SQL queries that end up needing to be in a config file somewhere. I'll write them out all pretty so they make sense (as much sense as some SQL can make...) and then I'll need to consolidate that down to one line. Here is a python one liner that does just that, given a string named mystr

" ".join([x.strip() for x in mystr.split("\n")])
