I'm using Sublime Text 3 With Pylinter to run pylint on my files.

However, on the same machine, I work on files for both python 2, and python 3 projects (the code is executed on one of several remote test-VMs, via SSH. I'm modifying the files by opening them over SMB. This is my home test-lab, and I'm finally sitting down to learn py3k).

Can I easily override the mechanism pylint uses to determine the python version it should lint for? Ideally, there would be an inline directive, but I have not had much luck finding anything.

I'm (editing) on Windows (the remote VMs are linux, but that' irrelevant here), for what it's worth.

You can try python2 -m pylint ... and python3 -m pylint .... That ensures that you use the right version.
