It is my understanding that it does check for PEP8 names. Even if it doesn't it is really easy to change. If you run 'pylint --generate-rcfile' (i think) it will output the configuration that it is using. You can then save this off and customize it. > > I'll try to come up with a nice short code example in the next few days > to demonstrate what I think the problem is and post it, thanks for the > suggestion. If you didn't have an example handy what prompted you to start this thread? -- David blog: http://www.traceback.org twitter: http://twitter.com/dstanek -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
