Subject: bug#36359: 'sentence-end-base' 3 additional symbols
Date: Mon, 24 Jun 2019 18:13:56 +0200
I just wanted to suggest to perhaps add this:

- '>' - GREATER-THAN SIGN
  (codepoint 62, #o76, #x3e),
- '»' - RIGHT-POINTING DOUBLE ANGLE QUOTATION MARK
  (codepoint 187, #o273, #xbb),
- '›' - SINGLE RIGHT-POINTING ANGLE QUOTATION MARK
  (codepoint 8250, #o20072, #x203a),

to the value of 'sentence-end-base', like this for example:

-"[.?!…‽][]\"'”’)}]*"
+"[.?!…‽][]\"'”’»›)}>]*"

And perhaps update example in section "15.8(INFO) Regular Expression
Example" of Emacs manual.
