#Jslint-rb Borne out of a set of Python/Bash scripts I had lugged around for several years. Decided to turn into an actual program instead of setting it up on yet another machine.

###Features:

• Converted to ruby for easy portability
• Using ExecJS, so no dependency on a particular JS runtime
• You can specify a list of globals at the commandline (config file in the future) instead of having to update your source code files with ugly /*global x,y,z */ declarations
• will also be able to configure multiple formatters easily for use in different environments (VIM, RubyMine, Continuous Integration, etc)

###Examples:

Install the gem and a js runtime

gem install jslint-rb
gem install therubyracer

Setup a config file in your $HOME directory, named .jslint-rb. Then put the following in there

global_vars:
 - default:true
formatter_proc: VIM
lint_options:
 - default:true

You should be all set to start linting your Javascript! Output will be to STDOUT

jslint-rb foo.js

####TODO:

1. Make a task to pull the latest version of JSHint
2. Test with MacVim and Windows
