- <longdescription lang="en">Pylint is a Python source code analyzer which looks for programming
- errors, helps enforcing a coding standard and sniffs for some code
- smells (as defined in Martin Fowler's Refactoring book).
- Pylint can be seen as another PyChecker since nearly all tests you can
- do with PyChecker can also be done with Pylint. However, Pylint offers
- some more features, like checking length of lines of code, checking if
- variable names are well-formed according to your coding standard, or
- checking if declared interfaces are truly implemented, and much more.
- Additionally, it is possible to write plugins to add your own checks.</longdescription>
