BTW, you can write your own rules and add them to LanguageTool-3.5\org\languagetool\rules\en\grammar.xml (or delete rules that frequently cause false positives). For example, the following rule will flag split infinitives:

<rule id="SPLIT_INFINITIVE" name="Don't split infinitives">
  <pattern>
    <!-- TO = infinitival to -->
    <token postag="TO"/>
    <!-- RB = adverb -->
    <token postag="RB"/>
    <!-- VB = verb -->
    <token postag="VB"/>
  </pattern>
  <message>Don't split infinitives, unless you're James T. Kirk. ☺ </message>
  <suggestion>to \3 \2</suggestion>
  <short>Split infinitive</short>
</rule>

(I know that split infinitives haven't been frowned upon in a long time.)

If you don't want to fiddle with POS tags, you can create your own word-based rules with the online LanguageTool rule editor.
