Probably should use a linter on this project

I've never used it before, but I've heard good things. Pydev uses it underneath the hood, and it helps me catch errors.

pylint always seemed to be a bit noisy for me. Not that I'm against the use of pylint (it's been a while since I've tried running pylint over my own code), but we should also consider other linters we could use, such as flake8.

Sure, that seems fine to me.
