How to set single spacing after punctuation in bibliography section using apacite?
I am working in APA6 class option, and with the apacite citation package.
I want to have strict single spacing after punctuation / between sentences. In text, I used the frenchspacing command. However, this does not apply to bibliography section.
Any suggestion?

LaTeX generally already typesets its bibliography without extra space after periods. Indeed apacite is no exception, its redefinition of thebibliography has sfcode`.=1000relax, which means that a full stop/period will not trigger the behaviour of nonfrenchspacing to add a bit of space afterwards.
Bibliographies do, however, have the additional command newblock. This command is used to separate larger chunks of information in the bibliography. Traditionally it adds a little bit of extra space between those blocks and allows for extra stretchiness. The default definition of newblock for apacite is defnewblock{hskip .11em plus .33em minus .07em}. As it happens, a newblock after a full stop in the bibliography will roughly have the same visual effect as the additional space after a full stop in nonfrenchspacing.
If you want to get rid of the additional space introduced by newblock you can patch its definition in thebibliography. The effect is quite miniscule though.

usepackage{filecontents}
begin{filecontents}{jobname.bib}
@book{appleby,
author = {Humphrey Appleby},
title = {On the Importance of the Civil Service},
year = {1980},
}
end{filecontents}
begin{document}
{frenchspacing Appleby, H. (1980). emph{On the importance...}par}
{nonfrenchspacing Appleby, H. (1980). emph{On the importance...}par}
cite{appleby}
bibliographystyle{apacite}
bibliography{jobname}
end{document}
Here is a direct comparison of the two: Red is the original definition, blue the new one with disabled newblock.

Thank you so much! The effects are quite minuscule indeed, but enough to be notice by my supervisor, I can assure you!
