Please replace "-l 9" with "-l 6" since this is the maximum warning
level that actually exists. By being precise that "-l 6" is what the
IETF likes, we will have the freedom to add another level 7 at some
later point in time which generates warnings the IETF does not care
about. For example, we could simply assign the name length warnings
to the new level 7.
Note that smilint allows to configure the error levels assigned to
each warning it generates. To achieve comparable results, you want to
ensure that the default settings are actually being used. To ensure
this, I usually call smilint in the following way:
smilint -c /dev/null -m -s -l 6 -i namelength-32
(Of course, this is the UNIX style of doing things - not sure whether
there is a similar trick without creating an empty file that
generally works on Win32 systems.)
