Q: Where can I get an ANSI-compatible lint?
A: Products called PC-Lint and FlexeLint are available from Gimpel Software.
The Unix System V release 4 lint is ANSI-compatible, and is available separately (bundled with other C tools) from UNIX Support Labs or from System V resellers.
Another ANSI-compatible lint (which can also perform higher-level formal verification) is Splint (formerly lclint).
In the absence of lint, many modern compilers do attempt to diagnose almost as many problems as lint does. (Many netters recommend gcc -Wall -pedantic [footnote] .)
