You just need to read the file in, remove the new lines and write it again.

with open("./foo.txt", "r") as f:
    formatted = ""
    for line in f.readlines():
        formatted += line.replace('\n', " ") # Removes the new lines, add spaces instead
    
    formatted.replace("  ", " ") # Replace double space with one space
    
    # Writes single line to textfile
    with open("./bar.txt", "w") as out:
        out.write(formatted)
