Just a heads-up that I've integrated the script into our Rietveld
instance.  If you use gcl, it will ping the server at a special url
after a patchset upload so that it can lint the files in the
background.  When you visit the issue page, you'll see  a "x errors"
link under the Lint column which takes you to the lint output. If the
file hasn't been linted yet, you'll see "? errors", in which case
clicking the link will show the errors and save it for future
refreshes of the issue page.
