Pylint is a code checker for Python. See the project's page for details.

Notes

• On OS X you need to set the environment variable LC_CTYPE to UTF-8 before running Vim:

LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_CTYPE

• Several people have expressed interest in showing the old message IDs along with the error messages. You can override the message format in g:syntastic_python_pylint_post_args. Please note that the new format must start with {path}:{line}:{column}:{C}: , otherwise syntastic will not recognise any messages. Example:

let g:syntastic_python_pylint_post_args = '--msg-template="{path}:{line}:{column}:{C}: [{symbol} {msg_id}] {msg}"'
