Hi,
there is something like this in the doc-string of error:
,----
| In Emacs, the convention is that error messages start with a capital
| letter but *do not* end with a period. Please follow this convention
| for the sake of consistency.
`----
but there are 197 occurrences of this dot:
address@hidden:lisp > find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 -e grep -n -e
'(error.*[^\.]\."'|wc -l
197
But I do not think it is worthy to change it right now before the release
of 21.1... Or do you think it is the time to do it?
