More precisely it avoids the natural +problem of definitions such as \def\etc{\emph{etc}.}, which may then cause +double periods if used at the end of sentences, such as ... cats, dogs \etc. +It also deals with optional commas, which again may be rendered unnecessary by +the presence of a following sentence terminator. + +Change history: +v2.0 overhauled all user commands, introduced \NewDocumentCommand, + added \xspaceafter. +v1.0 first official release. + |
