Hello,

I've noticed that sent won't interpret '@' unless it's at the beginning of a
paragraph. This is inconsistent with the other control characters, which are
interepreted as long as they are at the beginning of any line. `sent.1` also
mentions that '@' should behave in the same way the other two characters do.
I'd be happy to provide a patch, but first I'd like to know what is the
preferred course of action. We can either leave the behavior as is and just
update the documentation, change it so that '@' is interpreted as long as it is
on the beginning of any line, or maybe even change it so that a line beginning
with '@' must be the only line in the paragraph to be interpreted. My reasoning
behind the third option is that there already is a mechanism for commenting, so
having '@' eat up the entire paragraph feels a little off.
