spaces are treated normally in regexp incremental search if they
occur in a regexp construct like [...] or *, + or ?.
-If the value is a string, it applies to both ordinary and regexp
-incremental search. If the value is nil, each space you type
-matches literally, against one space.
-
-The value can also be a cons cell (REGEXP-1 . REGEXP-2). In that
-case, REGEXP-1 is used as the value for ordinary incremental
-search, and REGEXP-2 is used for regexp incremental search.
+If the value is a string, it applies to both ordinary and
+regexp incremental search. If the value is nil, or
+`isearch-lax-whitespace' is nil for ordinary incremental search, or
+`isearch-regexp-lax-whitespace' is nil for regexp incremental search,
+then each space you type matches literally, against one space.
You might want to use something like \"[ \\t\\r\\n]+\" instead.
In the Customization buffer, that is `[' followed by a space,
a tab, a carriage return (control-M), a newline, and `]+'."
