List: What method should one use to code whitespace after a period as

spacing?
Hi Henry,
not sure I’m getting your point, since this is also a question of
perspective.
What may be named “French spacing” in English may be considered as
“English spacing” in any other European language.
But this is pure TeX
(https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/teximpatient.git/plain/teximpatient/book.pdf#search=null):
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1em]
PhD. Next sentence
PhD\null. Next sentence
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
I think this may be what you want.

Would you be so kind to update the wiki?
I hope it helps,
Assuming that you document it I'll add
test\fsp. test. test
where fsp == fixed space functuation
