By scanning for terminating punctuation followed by either two spaces or a newline. What's that? You don't use double-spaces between each sentence? Sucks to be you! The Man™ can pry my double-spaces from my cold dead fingers.
And I say terminating punctuation in general (not just periods) because there's a growing number of cases of other such punctuation occurring within certain proper nouns - for example, "Panic! at the Disco".
