Cause
Resolution Orbix does not provide any tools to remove empty or surplus empty lines from an Orbix configuration file.

Using a text editor for example Notepad (http://notepad-plus-plus.org/) with the TextFX plugin installed (Plugins->Plugin Manager->Show Plugin Manager and install TextFX plugin), you can simply load the configuration file, mark all text (Ctrl A), then select menu TextFX->TextFX Edit->Delete Surplus Blank Lines.

This removes all surplus empty lines.
