Usage

var oneliner = require('oneliner')
 
var oneline = oneliner(`Hey !
  This is my text file
  with a lot of blabla and some code:
    function t(a, b) {
      return a + b;
    }`)
 
console.log(oneline)
// Hey ! This is my text file with a lot of blabla and some code: function t(a, b) { return a + b; }

It also support template literals:

oneliner`This is amazing.
         It truly is phenomenal
         based on what they say`

It replaces and collapses \t\r\n and spaces.
