is it possible to run JSLint as commandline in windows with help of node.js?

Question

I mean to run it like this: ``` node.exe lint.js my_js_file.js ``` And then get output to a console. What do I need to download ? Do I need just to save `http://www.jslint.com/` to disk and then grab some attached js file or I need to look for special version for node.js ?

Accepted Answer

Install `jshint` globally then you can use it from the command line.

```
npm install -g jshint
jshint testfile.js
```

All this is assuming that you already have `node` and `npm` running on you windows machine.

Edit I just noticed that I responded with an answer for `jshint` instead of `jslint`, the as the other answer points out, they are similar but not the same. My answer holds true for both though. For `jslint`:

```
npm install -g jslint
jslint testfile.js
```
