Ignoring ~\cite{}

[hugolundin]

Hi!

I am writing citations with the IEEE standard, meaning that my LaTeX looks like this:

This is my sentence~\cite{author:2017:very-good-article}.

Depending on the sentence, LanguageTool sometimes gives me a warning that there is a missing comma between the last word of the sentence and the cite command. I figured the solution was to add \cite{} to my list of ignored commands.

However, then it complains about ~ instead and gives a warning that a space should not be put before a full stop. I tried adding ~\cite{} to my ignore list, but that does not seem to help.

Another alternative would be to use dummy instead of ignore. But then I get the original warning about missing comma instead. Any suggestions? Thank you!
