ttlint

ttlint is a Tiny Text Linter. It uses the very fast Aho-Corasick algorithm to search for a set of strings.

By default, it searches for:

• Trailing whitespace
• The UTF-8 byte-order mark
• Git merge conflict markers
• Carriage return (\r)

Features

• Checks for the presence of certain substrings
• Very fast
• --fix mode available
• Precompiled binaries available
• Safe, doesn't panic
• <200 lines of code

Non-Features

• No recursive mode, use find/xargs/shell globs
• Not parallel, use xargs, make, or ninja

Install

Download a binary from the releases page, or build with Cargo:

cargo install --locked ttlint
