Re: Regular expression for matching sentences

I am trying to match my text template to catch sentences (sentences will end in '.','?','!')
So that I can count the number of em-spaces on it. But I just don't know how to create it without using \b (because saxon probably does not support it). Is there an alternative? Please help.
Thanks,

/[A-Z].*\./

matches anything that starts with a capital letter and ends in a full
stop....though be warned, this can return false positives.
