nim.lua

-- Nim plugin for lint+

--- CONFIG ---

-- config.lint.use_nimc: bool
--   switches the linting backend from `nim check` to `nim c`. this can
--   eliminate certain kinds of errors but is less safe due to `nim c` allowing
--   staticExec
-- config.lint.nim_args: string
--   passes the specified arguments to the lint command.
--   extra arguments may also be passed via a nim.cfg or config.nims.

--- IMPLEMENTATION ---
