That's an awk function per your earlier mention of awk. Except it
will only print broken lines. This awk will print all while fixing
the broken lines.

awk '{ if(sub(/=$/," ")!=0){ printf("%s",$0);}else{print;} }' <infile 
>outfile


Note that it won't fix other "quoted printable" characters that may
be embedded in the text. A full decoder as mentioned in other responses
will handle those too.
