the main difference between pyflakes and pychecker is the passive checking of modules, which i believe it shares with pylint. the other difference is not that pylint & pychecker lack important features, but that they contain many that seem extraneous to my goals as a user. my intention when using a program such as these is not to grade code using a style metric, or to ensure adherence to a coding standard - but to get a better sense of whether the code is going to execute smoothly (without having to execute it in the process)
my understanding is that this constitutes a tiny subset of pylint's features, thusly pyflakes is tiny, and is dependent on nothing (aside from python).
