Quotation marks and commas/periods in other languages

To enclose direct quotations, commas and periods go outside the closing quotation mark.

To achieve it, the following standard entries are supposed to look like:

For

C

Add this

Note

comma

,

\s

This entry allows only the space after comma.

period

.

,\s.\n

This entry allows the space, another period, new paragraph and comma, after period.

Please note that since comma must be followed by a space, this rule is added to the period rule, thus this is correct:

a., b

because there's a space after command, and this is wrong:

a.,b

new paragraph or line

 

\n

 

\o\n\sl


Description

C

Code

Note

right curly quotation

l

\s\n.,!?:;

See the note about character l.

This entry allows only a space, a new paragraph, period, comma, exclamation and question mark, colon and semicolon after right curly quotation.
