Ah, my good Willravel, a fine question.
The number of spaces after a period may be calculated by means of retroactively counting the number of times the space bar was pressed immediately after the period in question. Be careful, however, as the space bar needn't have been pressed immediately following the time period the period was pressed. Failing that, one can measure the spaces by using the cursor keys! (Use both left and right as corrective measures for double-checking, if need be.) Fantastic, technology today, no?
