Description bigserpent 2003-01-04 14:19:09 UTC

When the automatic first letter capitalization is enabled, it capitalizes
letters without taking into account that the previous word is initial or
abbreviation.

For example, typing "Rabtchevich A.V. has..." causes "has" to be capitalized to
"Has".

Other case is a abbreviation with dots within it, for example, "ph.d. is...".

Language doesn't matter.

So the suggestion is not to capitalize automaticaly first letter of a word after
dot, if the dot is preceded by a letter.

Sorry, little correction is needed.
...not to capitalize automaticaly first letter of a word after
dot, if the dot is preceded by letter (s), preceded by a dot without
any spaces.

Another addition is: abbreviations which consist from several letters
separated with dots are not recognized as one entity and are breaked
at the end of a line. So part of the word is translated to the next
line, what is incorrect.
