About LaCheck:
A consistency checker for LaTeX documents.

LaCheck is a general purpose consistency checker for LaTeX documents. It reads a LaTeX document and displays warning messages, if it finds bad sequences. It should be noted, that the badness is very subjective. LaCheck is designed to help find common mistakes in LaTeX documents, especially those made by beginners. The things checked are: Mismatched groups (braces), environments and math mode delimiters. When a mismatch is found, line numbers for "both" start and end of the mismatch is given. The error messages comes in pairs, one for the end match and one for the beginning, marked with `<-' and `->' respectively. Bad spacing including missing a `\' after an abbreviation, missing an `\@' before a punctuation mark in a paragraph that is ended by an capital letter, double spaces like ` ~', bad usage of ellipsis (like using ... instead of \ldots, or using \ldots where \cdots should be used), missing \~ before a \cite or \ref commands, space before footnotes, italic corrections before comma, point, or italic text, italic correction after normal text, missing italic correction when switching from italic to normal text, and double italic correction. Badly placed punctuation marks around end of math mode delimiters. This is, pucktuation placed right after display math end or punctuation placed right before text math end. Sequences of whitespace followed by punctuation marks are also caught. Bad use of quotation characters, i.e. constructs like "\'word" or "word\`" are warned about, tabs in verbatim environments are caught, certain TeX primitives are frowned upon, attempts to give font specifiers arguments such as \em{text} are noted, and use of @ in LaTeX macros are reported. LaCheck will read files that are input using \input or \include. Files with suffix `.sty' are omitted, as they probably will cause LaCheck to crash.
