In fact, since I needed it for my own use anyway, I wrote this script
(actually just a one-liner I entered at the shell prompt):


for file in font/devps/*[A-Z]; do sed -Ei\~ 's/(.*)(^| )\. (.*)/&\n\1\2u2026
\3/' $file ; done


It's an ugly and likely nonportable hack, but editing the font/devps files
directly is probably the wrong solution anyway.
