Comment on Google releases its own Javascript Lint tool

Comments

Ouch, they shipped with a broken fixjsstyle command: http://groups.google.com/group/closure-linter-discuss/browse... Luckily it didn't break my jsfile, but that's kind of clumsy.

After fixing that, I ran into an even more surprising error which someone had already reported - turns out a simple JavaScript closure chokes it:

(function() {})();

I remember running into this issue with their minifier at some point as well.
