Proselint is neat! I've wanted something like this forever.

The other thing I want: someone to build an Emacs mode out of Garner's usage dictionary. That book is begging to be a software tool.

This is very cool. You had me at David Foster Wallace.

I'll be trying this out:

1. As a sublime plugin for my next blog post. 2. As plain old Python as part of a mass scrape-spellcheck-stylecheck of the corporate website.

Proselinter looks pretty cool, it is python and can be installed with pip as a command-line tool. Doesn't need Emacs!

I just ran it on some reStructuredText files and it looks that it supports them as well as markdown! It's going to be very helpful for a book in sphinx I'm working on, thank you.

True enough, but everything's better with emacs!

Is there a plugin for ms word?
