Syntastic is a syntax checking plugin for [Vim][vim] that runs files through
external syntax checkers and displays any resulting errors to the user. This
can be done on demand, or automatically as files are saved. If syntax errors
are detected, the user is notified and is happy because they didn't have to
compile their code or execute their script to find them.

errors. Note that, in practise, you will only have a subset of these methods

Syntastic aims to provide a common interface to syntax checkers for as many
languages as possible. For particular languages, there are, of course, other
plugins that provide more functionality than syntastic. You might want to take
