What steps should I take to achieve this with an elisp function ?=20 For example, consider the following text where the phrase 'sees the human= =20 mind' is split between two lines, yet I need to match it in its entirety. Theories of how the mind/brain works have been dominated for centuries by two opposing views. One, rationalism, sees the human mind as coming into this world more or less fully formed - preprogrammed, in modern terms. The other, empiricism, sees the mind of the newborn as largely unstructured, a blank slate. =20
