Syntastic comes in two parts: the syntax checker plugins, and the core script
|
||||||
|
(i.e. syntastic.vim). The syntax checker plugins are defined on a per-filetype
|
||||||
|
basis where each one wraps up an external syntax checking program. The core
|
||||||
|
script delegates off to these plugins and uses their output to provide the
|
||||||
|
syntastic functionality. Currently, syntax checking plugins exist for eruby,
|
||||||
|
haml, html, javascript, php, python, ruby and sass.
|
||||||

|
If your language is not supported then see |syntastic-syntax-checkers| for
|
||||||
|
details on how to implement a syntax checking plugin, and be sure to send me a
|
||||||
|
patch ;-)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This plugin is currently only recommended for *nix users. It is functional on
|
||||||
|
Windows, but since the syntax checking plugins shell out, the command window
|
||||||
|
briefly appears whenever one is executed.
