Pylint
For PTVS 2.1, we have added support for running PyLint in PTVS.
In Solution Explorer, you'll see a command to run PyLint on your Python project node.
![PyLint Command][https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Microsoft/PTVS/841eab161949862e498b7d4603d7dcae059db635/Python/Docs/User/Images/PylintCommand.png]
If you don't have PyLint installed, it will prompt you to install it into your active Python environment.
The errors reported by PyLint will appear in the Error List window. Double-click on an error and it will take you to the source code.
