How can I tell chktex that I have checked the next line?

Question

I use chktex to check my bachelor's thesis for mistakes. I get a lot of warnings and I would like to get rid of them. For example, I have a line

\large{\iflanguage{english}{Duration}{Bearbeitungszeit}: \timestart{} -- \timeend{}}

which gives

Warning 8 in titlepage.tex line 75: Wrong length of dash may have been used.
\large{\iflanguage{english}{Duration}{Bearbeitungszeit}: \timestart{} -- \timeend{}}   
                                                                      ^^

I would like to tell chktex that I manually checked this line and that it is ok (and should not throw warnings).

For example, I would like to use something like

% chktex: manually checked
\large{\iflanguage{english}{Duration}{Bearbeitungszeit}: \timestart{} -- \timeend{}}

Does chktex have such a feature?

Answer 1

I'd never heard of chktex but texdoc chktex says

6.1.4 Per Line and File Suppressions

There are many cases in which ChkTEX will give a warning about a construct which, although it usually indicates a mistake, is intentional. In these cases it can be extremely annoying to have this message appear everytime ChkTEX is run. For this reason you can use LaTeX comments to suppress a certain message on a single line. This can be done by adding a (case-insensitive) comment at the end of the line of the form

                            % checktex ##

turns out the documentation isn't totally accurate

man chktex

reveals it should be chktex not checktex and I can confirm this works:

\large{\iflanguage{english}{Duration}{Bearbeitungszeit}: \timestart{} -- \timeend{}}% chktex 8 

But of course it should have told you to do

{\large\iflanguage{english}{Duration}{Bearbeitungszeit}: \timestart{} -- \timeend{}}% chktex 8
