Hi Henry,

not sure I’m getting your point, since this is also a question of
perspective.

What may be named “French spacing” in English may be considered as
“English spacing” in any other European language.

But this is pure TeX
(https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/teximpatient.git/plain/teximpatient/book.pdf#search=null):

  \starttext
  \startTEXpage[offset=1em]
  PhD. Next sentence

  PhD\null. Next sentence
  \stopTEXpage
  \stoptext

I think this may be what you want.

Would you be so kind to update the wiki?

I hope it helps,

Pablo
