Description: Importchecker
        =============
        
        What is importchecker?
        ----------------------
        
        Importchecker is a commandline utility to find unused imports in Python
        modules.
        
        Its output is "grep-like" (and thus "emacs-friendly"), reporting both the
        module's filenames and line numbers where names are imported that are not
        acually used in the module.
        
        Importchecker will not modify any of the source files. Whether the import
        needs to be removed is left to the judgement of the developer.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        The importchecker commandline utility can be installed using the
        ``easy_install`` command::
        
          $ sudo easy_install importchecker
        
        The command can then be invoked with either a directory or a Python file::
        
          $ importchecker /path/to/a/source/tree
          $ importchecker /path/to/a/source/tree/module.py
        
        Buildout
        --------
        
        Projects that make use of `zc.buildout`_ for development might find the
        following ``buildout.cfg.`` snippet useful for using the importchecker on
        the developed codebase::
        
          [buildout]
          ...
          parts = importchecker ...
          ...
        
          [importchecker]
          recipe = zc.recipe.egg
          eggs = importchecker
          arguments = "${buildout:directory}/src"
        
        .. _`zc.buildout`: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.buildout
        
        Known issues
        ------------
        
        * One source tree path argument at the time can be passed to the command
          line utility.
        
        * Command line argument parsing is rather naïve.
        
        Changes
        =======
        
        1.1 (2012-01-09)
        ----------------
        
        * Applied provided by wosc enabling running the import checker on
          individual python modules not just directories.
        
        * Report the absolute path for modules when needed, relative paths (relative
          to the current working directory, that is) when possible.
        
        1.0 (2008-05-06)
        ----------------
        
        * Initial packaging
        
        * Make the importchecker work on python 2.5
