Default spacing between sentences

In article , "Tony Jollans" My
forename at my surname dot com says...
It's easy to change (end-of-sentence-character) (space) (not space) to (same
end-of-sentence-character) (space) (space) (same not space) and leave other
combinations alone.

Enjoy,

Yes, if you know how to use regular expressions, but most Word users do
not.

Actually, a way to do it without REs is:

1) Replace all instances of period-space-space with some unique
character combination such as @@@@.
2) Replace all instances of period-space with period-space-space.
3) Replace all instances of @@@@ with period-space-space.
