No, that doesn't make any sense whatsoever :)
A \n *is* a new line. I can only guess you're getting confused because
there's \r's as well as \n's in the string. Try this:
<?php
$str = "abc\r\ndefg\r\n\r\nxyzpqr\r\njklmno";
$str = ereg_replace("([^\r\n])\r\n([^\r\n])", "\\1 \\2", $str);
echo $str;
?>
Or alternatively:
<?php
$str = "abc\r\ndefg\r\n\r\nxyzpqr\r\njklmno";
$str = ereg_replace("\r", "", $str);
$str = ereg_replace("([^\n])\n([^\n])", "\\1 \\2", $str);
echo $str;
?>
A CR is a carriage return, a LF is a line feed or newline. \r = CR, \n = LF.
Unix files use only LF (\n) for new lines, whereas MS DOS/Windows uses CRLF
(\r\n) and Mac uses just CR (\r).
