Ale: Want to use Pylint for python3..

[ehzawad]

Is pylint supported ?

[w0rp]

Not yet, but if someone wants to open a pull request for it which works, I'll take that. If nobody else adds it, I'll add it eventually.

Pylint has a bit of a ...difficult output format. Even when you manually make it something gcc-like, it likes to spit out multiline output with arrow pointers not unlike clang. We can't just drop those lines because the actual explanation is included there. I'll see what I can do, but it might be a while.

[w0rp]

One of the linters, I can't remember which one, handles that kind of output by looking for the markers every other line.

The thing with pylint is it is only some errors, not all of them. And the error message is split over the two lines, so we need to parse that and strip the arrow. It's... bleh...
