Your use of four ellipses is in poor syntax. ;) It should be: three periods with one space in between each.

It should be three periods when it comes in the middle of a sentence, and four periods when it finishes a sentence....


really, with one space between each? That's probably one of the many reasons I'm not a tech writer :-)
