+pyflakes
+========
+
+A simple program which checks Python source files for errors.
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+Pyflakes is similar to PyChecker in scope, but differs in that
+it does not execute the modules to check them. 
+This is both safer and faster, although it does not perform as many checks. 
+
+Unlike PyLint, Pyflakes checks only for logical errors in programs; it does not perform any checks on style.
+
+Download

+
+**Warning:** 
+There has been some uncertainty on where gets pyflakes developed since year 2011.
