From 1df7defd8040839a81909b0eb8f428f6158b2362 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Eggert Date: Wed, 5 Dec 2012 14:27:56 -0800 Subject: Fix minor whitespace issues after "." in manual. Be more systematic about using "@." (not ".") at end of sentence that ends in a capital letter, and about appending "@:" after non-ends of sentences that end in a lower case letter followed by "." followed by whitespace. Omit unnecessary use of "@:" and "@.". Similarly for "?" and "!". Be more consistent about putting a comma after "i.e." and "e.g."; this is the typical American style and it's easier to code in Texinfo.
