    Using nroff, it's about impossible to get proper spacing of
sentences if, like me, you end each sentence at the end of a line.
Nroff sticks in the two spaces for a period, possibly for an
exclamation point or question mark as well, but not for a sentence
that ends in a double quote mark or a close parenthesis.  This is
despite the fact that these are perfectly legal formations.
