Re: Possible change to startup.el

    Rms can obviously correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you're taking
    his words much too literally; using a period is much more clumsy[*]

You are not taking them literally enough.  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.
