I'm going to assume pylint or pyflakes would throw too many warnings on

unused import checker to run over the stdlib on occasion? I bet even one
that did nothing more than a regex search for matched import statements
would be good enough.

Zope 3 has an import checker that uses the compiler package and AST tree
to check for unused imports. It seems like a better approach than a
simple regex search.

The importorder tool uses the tokenizer module to order import statements.

Both are written by Jim Fulton.


  Ah, but does it run against Python 3? If so then this is something to
suggest on python-mentor for someone to get their feet wet for contributing.


A possible alternative is the sfood-checker tool given here http://furius.ca/snakefood/ which I stumbled across whilst looking for something completely different.
