Add error end column to the output then add the information in all the checkers

[purpleP]

Right now it's hard to use pylint as linter integrated into text editor, because it isn't showing where error ends and sometimes doesn't even show where error starts (shows zero column for example in unused import)

You can customize this by using the --msg-template parameter. How each editor integration is using it though is not something that pylint should be aware of.

@PCManticore According to docs you only have column field. Which is the column where error starts. I'm talking about outputting where the error ends.

@PCManticore The issue isn't resolved. Please reopen.

I agree, this issue should be re-opened

This is a huge one though. By the way I read that linked issue in dense analysis and highlighing till the end of the line should indeed be prefered. This can be the default value until we manage to add the real information in all the checkers.
