LaTeX measurements are flagged as spelling errors #38

Measurement values are flagged as spelling errors, even though they are not. They can't be added to a dictionary, as they are obviously dynamic values used frequently throught a LaTeX document.

For example, .25em, .1pt, and .5em are flagged as spelling errors. E.g:

\renewcommand{\section}[1]{
  {\enspace\headingfont\noindent\Large{\textbf{#1}}}\\[.25em] % Header section name
  \noindent\rule{\textwidth}{.1pt}\\[.5em] % Rule under the header
  % \noindent\hrulefill
}

This is challenging as they are dynamic values. I would usually default to using something like Regex to detect these.

Is it possible to update the grammar provider to skip numbers that end in pt, em, cm etc.

There is already code for this in this package, which was just not used. You can fix it locally by editing your own copy of the package, see #39 for the one line change!

I installed today, bug is still present. Will this get merged?
