I haven't the slightest idea how to toggle it, which of course is the important question. But I do have an idea: for regexp searches, if while I'm typing my regexp, and I type a space, and this feature is on, it'd be lovely if Emacs would simply insert the appropriate regexp for whitespace -- such as \s-+ -- into the mini-buffer. That way I will learn a bit more about regexps. -- |\ _,,,---,,_ ZZZzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-' '---''(_/--' `-'\_) fL
