I made a decision, I stated it clearly and concretely, and I meant exactly what I said. I want the period on the first line to terminate the translation of "Emacs Tutorial". Please do not tell people to twist what I said. perhaps it is better to call this region of characters "text before first DELIM, where DELIM is period" instead of "sentence". Up to the first period is exactly what I said it should be.
