I don't know, but I feel it's too simple to be added by default... People usually have tons of those little functions loaded when they start emacs, I just keep collecting them!
Cheers,

I apologize....I pasted wrongly...it's working perfectly....great feature...
can you try to get this function available by default in future emacs version?

I pasted this code in my .emacs and restarted Emacs. I got the following error :
Symbol's value as variable is void: On
To ensure normal operation, you should investigate the cause of the error in your initialization file and remove it. Start Emacs with the `--debug-init' option to view a complete error backtrace
Thanks

I just wrote and tested this function.
Just mark the region and do a join-region.
Tell me if it helped,
-weber
(defun join-region (beg end)
"Apply join-line over region."
(interactive "r")
(if mark-active
(let ((beg (region-beginning))
(end (copy-marker (region-end))))
(goto-char beg)
(while (< (point) end)
(join-line 1)))))
