Hi,

I couldn't find regexp option in JSHint docs...

thanksss!!

line 0   col 0   Bad option: 'ender'.

Cool! Thank you~

Is there a way to ignore folders like the node_modules folder?

@ORESoftware, have you considered adding a .jshintignore file?

Getting that same error as @emj365
line 0, col 0, Bad option: 'ender'
there is no option 'ender' in the documentation. So I am guess it has been deprecated/removed.
removing this line from file and all is well.

BTW Thx for this gist!

Getting the following warning

Expected and identifier instead saw 'import' in Visual Studio..what are the possible fixes for this ? (JS Lint)

I don't want to add /*jshint esnext: true */ in each file what should i do ?
@connor

Great dotfile! Changing a few tidbits, but using this as my global. I use ES6.
