SQL> set feedback off;
SQL> spool C:/test.txt

In the file test.txt. the output looks like this..
SQL> select * from temp;

If you are looking for more than just a quick answer, then I suggest you read the SQLPLUS user's guide and look at all the SET commands. Remember, there is a difference between SQL and SQLPLUS. SQL is the select,insert,update,delete commands you use to change data. SQLPLUS is an Oracle tool in which you can execute SQL.
SQLPLUS commands are not SQL, they are the environment commands you can use to change the environment of SQLPLUS and thus how it behaves. So, you have thinkgs like SET ..., COLUMN ..., and other stuff. You might want to consider this set of SET commands as a start for your data dump:
SET ECHO OFF
SET VERIFY OFF
SET TRIMSPOOL ON
SET TRIMOUT ON
SET LINESIZE 9999
SET PAGESIZE 0
SET FEEDBACK OFF
SET TIMING OFF
SET TIME OFF
These SQLPLUS commands will I believe make sure you get the clean spool you are looking for.
As Michel pointed out however, you must run you SQL commands from a file if you want this to work. For example:
If you simply past SQL into SQLPLUS, it will always show up in your spool file.
Lastly, if you do not know what all the SET commands above do, then you shouldn't use them right? You dont' just take blanket advice without doing your own research. Which gets us back to... you should be reading the SQLPLUS manual to find out.

Good luck, Kevin
