Consider this paragraph:
The file found in "include/freetype/config/ftoption.h" contains a
list of commented configuration macros that can be toggled by
developers to indicate which features should be active in their
build of the library.
Set the right margin to 72 characters and do C-u M-q:
The file found in "include/freetype/config/ftoption.h" contains a list
of commented configuration macros that can be toggled by developers to
indicate which features should be active in their build of the library.
Note the hanging final full stop. Basically, this is very nice from a
typographical point of view, nevertheless, it is a bug since you can
replace the `.' with any other character and it still sticks out one
character.
