Versions of the unix utilities that run on Windows are available, but you
can just use Microsoft Word to do what you want. Just use the find/replace
function. In Word, you can search for a paragraph marker by looking for
"^p" (caret p)

Because you undoubtedly have real paragraphs in the document which you
don't want to remove, I'd recommend substituting double paragraph marks
with something unique (e.g. "@ZZZ@") before replacing all the other
paragraph marks with a space. Then replace your unique marker with a
paragraph.
