When a \cite command is too large, flyspell starts to check it after a given lenght. For
instance, flyspell would not check (CORRECTLY) for:
\cite{Macek1970PRAp235,Shakesh1978PRLp1037,Belkic1979PRp279,Meckbac1981PRAp1793,Garibot1980PRAp572}
but would highlight the following:
\cite{Macek1970PRAp235,Shakesh1978PRLp1037,Belkic1979PRp279,Meckbac1981PRAp1793,Garibot1980PRAp572,Garibot1983PRAp2792}
(it would highlight the last Garibot and PRAp in Garibot1983PRAp2792).
It probably is related to the length Emacs search for regular expresions but I do not know
how to fix it.

Thanks, Juan

`flyspell-tex-command-p' has

	  (and (re-search-backward "\\\\" (- (point) 100) t)

so maybe replacing 100 by some larger value might help.

Thanks for the prompt reply,
Martin's suggestion worked. I fixed it and the problem was fixed. How does it
follows now? Will it be corrected for next version of flyspell?
Thanks for your time,
Juan

You can't "correct" this in a reasonable way because flyspell inherently
works on the word-like object before `point'.  The current value makes
flyspell already search the last 100 chars for a backslash every time it
investigates such an object.  Hardcoding a larger value here will just
make flyspell even more sloppy for the average user.

But maybe you can convince Agustín Martín to make this a customizable
option ;-)

I think this is just a limitation of flyspell, so I'm closing this bug
report.
