lintswitch

lintswitch runs pylint, pep8 and pymetrics on your Python code, and jshint on your JS code, in the background.

You must tell lintswitch which files to lint. A **vim** plugin is included, in the contrib directory, which calls lintswitch every time you save a file.

With lintswitch, your code is constantly being watched and linted in the background, without interrupting your workflow. You view the results in a browser.

Linters and file types currently supported:

 - Python: pylint, pep8, pymetrics
 - Javascript: jshint

lintswitch has only been tested on Ubuntu, but in theory should work anywhere Python does, as long as you install the linters.
