vulture - Find dead code
========================

Vulture finds unused classes, functions and variables in your code.
This helps you cleanup and find errors in your programs. If you run it
on both your library and test suite you can find untested code.

Due to Python's dynamic nature, static code analyzers like vulture are
likely to miss some dead code. Also, code that is only called
implicitly may be reported as unused. Nonetheless, vulture can be a
very helpful tool for higher code quality.


Download
========
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/vulture


Features
========
* fast: uses static code analysis
* lightweight: only one module
* tested: tests itself and has 100% test coverage
* complements *pyflakes* and has the same output syntax
* supports Python 2.6, 2.7 and 3.x


News
====
* Detect unused function and method arguments (issue #15).
* Detect unused *args and **kwargs parameters.
* Change license from GPL to MIT.


Cheers,
Jendrik
