This is documented ...
$ pylint --help

Output status code:
Pylint should leave with following status code:
* 0 if everything went fine
* 1 if some fatal message issued
* 2 if some error message issued
* 4 if some warning message issued
* 8 if some refactor message issued
* 16 if some convention message issued
* 32 on usage error
status 1 to 16 will be bit-ORed so you can know which different
categories has been issued by analysing pylint output status code

I'm accustomed to unix programs following the convention of exiting 0
for success and 1-255 for failure. I'm not clear how to distinguish
failure from the above. Thanks.
