In text form, it is quite often and, to my taste, quite normal to use 2 spaces after the full-dot (at the end of the sentence), just like an extra line between paragraphs. This way, it is easier to separate sentences between each other. In real typography, 1.5-sized space is usually used in such places. But since plaintext format has no 1.5-sized space, 2 spaces is used. I'd send an opposite patch, which adds additional space where it is missing.. :) Thanks, /mjt From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Received: from eggs.gnu.org ([2001:4830:134:3::10]:48309) by lists.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1WhGid-0006GW-Mk for qemu-devel@nongnu.org; Mon, 05 May 2014 07:06:05 -0400 Received: from Debian-exim by eggs.gnu.org with spam-scanned (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1WhGiV-0002jZ-8o for qemu-devel@nongnu.org; Mon, 05 May 2014 07:05:59 -0400 Message-ID: <5367708D.80803@msgid.tls.msk.ru> Date: Mon, 05 May 2014 15:05:49 +0400 From: Michael Tokarev MIME-Version: 1.0 References: <1399287591-6525-1-git-send-email-famz@redhat.com> <1399287591-6525-2-git-send-email-famz@redhat.com> In-Reply-To: <1399287591-6525-2-git-send-email-famz@redhat.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 1/2] docs/memory.txt: Put one whitespace between sentences List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , To: Fam Zheng , qemu-devel@nongnu.org Cc: qemu-trivial@nongnu.org, Peter Maydell , Paolo Bonzini 05.05.2014 14:59, Fam Zheng wrote: > In other words, whitespace changes only. > The memory API models the memory and I/O buses and controllers of a QEMU > -machine.
