  @defvar search-spaces-regexp
  If this variable is address@hidden, it should be a regular expression
  that says how to search for whitespace.  In that case, any group of
! spaces within in a regular expression being searched for stands for
! use of this regular expression.  However, spaces inside of constructs
! such as @address@hidden and @samp{*}, @samp{+}, @samp{?} are not
! affected by @code{search-spaces-regexp}.
