No thanks.  I use Borland Turbo C with all the warnings turned on and GNU C
with the -Wall option and I'll take that over lint any day.  I actually get
useful messages about what is wrong with the program as opposed to those
crypto-facist messages that lint gives me.  I can get by for the rest of my
life without looking at another output from lint.
