.SH "NAME"
Perl::Critic::Policy::Documentation::ProhibitParagraphTwoDots \- don't end a paragraph with two dots
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This policy is part of the \f(CW\*(C`Perl::Critic::Pulp\*(C'\fR
add-on.  It asks you not to end a \s-1POD\s0 paragraph with two dots,
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    Some thing..                    # bad
.Ve
.PP
This is a surprisingly easy typo, but of course is entirely cosmetic and on
that basis this policy is lowest severity and under the \*(L"cosmetic\*(R" theme
(see \*(L"\s-1POLICY THEMES\*(R"\s0 in Perl::Critic).
.PP
Three or more dots as an ellipsis is fine,
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    And some more of this ...       # ok
.Ve
.PP
and anything within a paragraph is fine,
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    Numbers 1 .. 10 are handled.    # ok
.Ve
.PP
Only text paragraphs are checked.  Verbatim paragraphs can end with anything
at all
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    This is an example,
\&
\&        example_code (1 ..          # ok
.Ve
.PP
There might be other dubious paragraph endings this policy could pick up,
but things like \*(L";.\*(R" or \*(L":.\*(R" can arise from code or smiley faces, so at the
moment only two dots are bad.
.SS "Disabling"
.IX Subsection "Disabling"
If you don't care about this you can disable \f(CW\*(C`ProhibitParagraphTwoDots\*(C'\fR
from your \fI.perlcriticrc\fR in the usual way (see
\&\*(L"\s-1CONFIGURATION\*(R"\s0 in Perl::Critic),
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    [\-Documentation::ProhibitParagraphTwoDots]
.Ve
.PP
A \f(CW\*(C`## no critic\*(C'\fR directive works in new enough \f(CW\*(C`Perl::Critic\*(C'\fR, but if you
have an \f(CW\*(C`_\|_END_\|_\*(C'\fR token then any \f(CW\*(C`no critic\*(C'\fR generally must be before
that.
