-  By default, search commands perform @dfn{lax space matching}:
-each space, or sequence of spaces, matches any sequence of one or more
-whitespace characters in the text.  (Incremental regexp search has a
-separate default; see @ref{Regexp Search}.)  Hence, @w{@samp{foo bar}}
-matches @w{@samp{foo bar}}, @w{@samp{foo@ @ bar}},
-@w{@samp{foo@ @ @ bar}}, and so on (but not @samp{foobar}).  More
-precisely, Emacs matches each sequence of space characters in the
-search string to a regular expression specified by the variable
-@code{search-whitespace-regexp}.  For example, to make spaces match
-sequences of newlines as well as spaces, set it to the regular expression
-@samp{[[:space:]\n]+}.  The default value of this variable considers
-any sequence of spaces and tab characters as whitespace.
+  By default, search commands perform @dfn{lax space matching}: each
+space, or sequence of spaces, matches any sequence of one or more
+whitespace characters in the text.  More precisely, Emacs matches each
+sequence of space characters in the search string to a regular

+@code{search-whitespace-regexp}.  The default value of this option
+considers any sequence of spaces and tab characters as whitespace.
+Hence, @w{@samp{foo bar}} matches @w{@samp{foo bar}}, @w{@samp{foo@ @
+bar}}, @w{@samp{foo@ @ @ bar}}, and so on (but not @samp{foobar}).  If
+you want to make spaces match sequences of newlines as well as spaces
+and tabs, customize the option to make its value be the regular
+expression @samp{[[:space:]\n]+}.  (The default behavior of the
+incremental regexp search is different; see @ref{Regexp Search}.)
 
   If you want whitespace characters to match exactly, you can turn lax
 space matching off by typing @kbd{M-s @key{SPC}}
