   By default, incremental search performs @dfn{lax space matching}:
 each space, or sequence of spaces, matches any sequence of one or more
 spaces in the text.  Hence, @samp{foo bar} matches @samp{foo bar},
-@samp{foo  bar}, @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
