[ANN] pylint-0.2

[Peter Milliken]

Sorry mate, but I am in the same directory of the Python file I am trying to
run through pylint and I get the same message originally posted by Mark
Hahn.

So something is wrong - perhaps you should verify that what is on the
web-site is actually working as you expect?

Here is the full error message from one of my runs:

roebourne#1(~/swimming)$ python

Note that I am running Python 2.2.2.
