Please use Package Control to install the linter plugin.

Before using this plugin, ensure that pylint (1.0 or later) is installed on your system. To install pylint, do the following:

  2. Install pylint by typing the following in a terminal, replacing ‘x’ with the minor version installed on your system:

    # For python 2.x
    [sudo] pip-2.x install pylint
    
    # For python 3.x
    [sudo] pip-3.x install pylint
    
    # On Windows, for python 2.x
    c:\Python2x\Scripts\pip.exe install pylint
    
    # On Windows, for python 3.x
    c:\Python3x\Scripts\pip.exe install pylint
    

Please make sure that the path to pylint is available to SublimeLinter. The docs cover troubleshooting PATH configuration.
