/sys$common/syshlp/EVE$HELP.HLB  —  SET_FIND_NOWHITESPACE
  SET FIND NOWHITESPACE    (default)

  Sets FIND and WILDCARD FIND to match spaces and tabs exactly as in the
  search string, rather than as "whitespace," and to search for strings that
  are entirely on one line.

  Example:

     The following commands find "Mark Twain" if there is exactly one space
     between the words and if they are on the same line:

        Command: SET FIND NOWHITESPACE
        Command: FIND mark twain

  Usage notes:

  o  By contrast, SET FIND WHITESPACE lets you search for strings whether
     the words are separated by spaces, tabs, or a line break.

  o  On DECwindows, you can choose the setting as follows:

        1.  Choose Set Whitespace from the Search menu or choose
            Search Attributes from the Customize menu.

        2.  Choose Set Find Nowhitespace.
