> One thing I found annoying was that it insisted on two spaces after a period. GNU Emacs' manual has a good explanation: The sentence commands assume that you follow the American typist's convention of putting two spaces at the end of a sentence. It is useful to follow this convention, because it allows the Emacs sentence commands to distinguish between periods that end a sentence and periods that indicate abbreviations.
