+@command{fmt} prefers breaking lines at the end of a sentence, and tries to
+avoid line breaks after the first word of a sentence or before the last word
+of a sentence.  A @dfn{sentence break} is defined as either the end of a
+paragraph or a word ending in any of @samp{.?!}, followed by two spaces or end
+of line, ignoring any intervening parentheses or quotes.  Like @TeX{},
+@command{fmt} reads entire ''paragraphs'' before choosing line breaks; the
+algorithm is a variant of that given by
