NAME

       Perl::Critic::Policy::Documentation::ProhibitParagraphTwoDots - don't end a paragraph with
       two dots

DESCRIPTION

       This policy is part of the "Perl::Critic::Pulp" add-on.  It asks you not to end a POD
       paragraph with two dots,

           Some thing..                    # bad

       This is a surprisingly easy typo, but of course is entirely cosmetic and on that basis
       this policy is lowest severity and under the "cosmetic" theme (see "POLICY THEMES" in
       Perl::Critic).

       Three or more dots as an ellipsis is fine,

           And some more of this ...       # ok

       and anything within a paragraph is fine,

           Numbers 1 .. 10 are handled.    # ok

       Only text paragraphs are checked.  Verbatim paragraphs can end with anything at all

           This is an example,

               example_code (1 ..          # ok

       There might be other dubious paragraph endings this policy could pick up, but things like
       ";." or ":." can arise from code or smiley faces, so at the moment only two dots are bad.

   Disabling
       If you don't care about this you can disable "ProhibitParagraphTwoDots" from your
       .perlcriticrc in the usual way (see "CONFIGURATION" in Perl::Critic),

           [-Documentation::ProhibitParagraphTwoDots]

       A "## no critic" directive works in new enough "Perl::Critic", but if you have an
       "__END__" token then any "no critic" generally must be before that.
