Sorry, somehow I missed where you said you were using ChkTeX 1.6.4. That version is quite old and has a bug that would cause this problem (in fact, the reason I originally got involved).

Since I couldn't reproduce it I'm going to close this bug. If you experience the problem with more recent versions please reopen this or create a new bug.

Sorry for taking so long to get back to you. I wasn't getting notifications.

Unfortunately, I can't reproduce this. What version of chktex are you using? Also, if you could post a minimal example causing the problem that would be great.

I should note that I'm running chktex 1.6.4 on Ubuntu 12.10.
pdfTeX 3.1415926-2.4-1.40.13 (TeX Live 2012/Debian)
kpathsea version 6.1.0

Hello!

In my LaTeX code I have the following line:

\renewcommand\thesubsubsection{\thesubsection~(\alph{subsubsection})}

and chktex warns me that there should be a space before the parentheses. However, I already have one, in the form of a tilde sign. It should recognize this and not give the warning.

Changing the tilde into a '\ ' works, but might not give the desired result as I want the alph to be connected to the \thesubsection.

Thanks!

Jonathan
