SET FIND NOWHITESPACE
Sets the FIND command to match spaces and tabs exactly as in the search
string, rather than as "white space," and to find strings that are
entirely on one line. This is the default setting.
Example:
Command Purpose or effects
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SET FIND NOWHITESPA Sets FIND to match spaces and tabs exactly as
in the search string and without spanning
line breaks.
2. FIND Mark Twain Finds "Mark Twain" if the white space is the
same as in the search string -- in this case,
exactly one space between the words -- and if
the string is entirely on one line.
To have searches treat all white space the same and to span a line break,
use SET FIND WHITESPACE. You may want to put the command in an
initialization file.
