There is a better variable to do this: `sentence-end-double-space'.
It could be set to nil in local variables.
There are also other translations that have a single space:
TUTORIAL.pl TUTORIAL.ru TUTORIAL.sl TUTORIAL.sv TUTORIAL.th.
Perhaps we should add this local variable for them as well.
Would you like to do this?
It seems strange that the Thai translation has a period and a single
space at the end of sentences. There is a special variable
`sentence-end-without-period' with docstring telling that a sentence
in Thai text ends with double space, but without a period. Probably
at the time when the translation was done this variable was not
available in Emacs yet. Shouldn't a period and space in the Thai file
be replaced by double space?
Please do this too if you feel like it.
