Text formatting syntax to avoid double period at end of sentence
-
AppColl provides some nice text formatting syntax for use in templates, such as "ToUpper" and "AddPeriodToInitials." I suggest a new syntax to avoid double periods at the end of a sentence. For example, I have a template letter that includes a sentence along the lines of, "(so-and-so) needs to sign the assignment, to accept it on behalf of {Matter.Applicants}." However, some applicants' names end in periods (ex., Acme Exploding Cigars, Inc.), whereas other applicants' names do not end in periods (ex., Elmer J. Fudd Enterprises). Thus, sometimes my template generates a sentence with two periods at the end (one from "Inc." and the other from the template).
I know it seems like a minor annoyance to delete the extra period, but it would be really nice to automate the deletion.
Thanks.

@GeorgeJ4336 thank you for the suggestion. We will certainly pass this on the engineering.
