The way to lint a script (that is, to only check its syntax) is to do
"ruby -c".
But I see in several places[1][2] on the net that people use "ruby -wc".
I always thought "-w" was for run-time warnings, not for compile-time
ones.
Can anybody give me an example for a Ruby code for which "ruby -wc"
gives different output than "ruby -c"?

$ cat test.rb
x = 1
$ ruby -c test.rb
Syntax OK
$ ruby -w -c test.rb
test.rb:1: warning: assigned but unused variable - x
Syntax OK
$ ruby -v

Funny, I was just today trying to figure out how to check for syntax
warnings within ruby, when I saw this PR
about checking for warnings in JRuby.
So far, it looks like all tools are just shelling out to the ruby
executable. I looked through the Ruby source code but didn't find where
these checks are done. I found it in Rubinius, but that doesn't really
help in the general case.
