-PyChecker is a tool for finding bugs in python source code. It finds problems
-that are typically caught by a compiler for less dynamic languages, like C and
-C++. It is similar to lint. Because of the dynamic nature of python, some
-warnings may be incorrect; however, spurious warnings should be fairly
-infrequent.
