Examples

Here is an example of the command-line API we want to support::

$ cat .editorconfig
[*]
indent_style = space
indent_size = 4

$ eclint check test/lf_*.txt
tests/lf_invalid_crlf.txt: Incorrect line ending found: crlf
tests/lf_invalid_crlf.txt: No final newline found
tests/lf_invalid_cr.txt: Incorrect line ending found: cr

$ eclint infer *
[*]
indent_style = space
indent_size = 4
end_of_line = lf
charset = utf-8
insert_final_newline = true
trim_trailing_whitespace = true

[Makefile]
indent_style = tab
indent_size = tab

$ eclint fix *
Makefile: Converted tabs to spaces

$ eclint check *
