I haven't followed pychecker development for awhile.  Pylint seems
more actively maintained, though I could be wrong.  The import issue
is one significant difference, important if you are trying to check
scripts which have side effects when imported.

It's not a matter of like or not.  I use what works and can easily be
fit into the way I work.  Both pylint and pychecker satisfy that
constraint.
