# asciicheck [![Go Report Card](https://goreportcard.com/badge/github.com/tdakkota/asciicheck)](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/tdakkota/asciicheck) [![codecov](https://codecov.io/gh/tdakkota/asciicheck/branch/master/graph/badge.svg)](https://codecov.io/gh/tdakkota/asciicheck) ![Go](https://github.com/tdakkota/asciicheck/workflows/Go/badge.svg)
Simple linter to check that your code does not contain non-ASCII identifiers

# Install

```
go get -u github.com/tdakkota/asciicheck/cmd/asciicheck
```

# Reason to use
So, do you see this code? Looks correct, isn't it?

```go
package main

import "fmt"

type TеstStruct struct{}

func main() {
s := TestStruct{}
fmt.Println(s)
}
```
But if you try to run it, you will get an error:
```
./prog.go:8:7: undefined: TestStruct
```
What? `TestStruct` is defined above, but compiler thinks diffrent. Why?

**Answer**:
Because `TestStruct` is not `TеstStruct`.
```
type TеstStruct struct{}
^ this 'e' (U+0435) is not 'e' (U+0065)
```

# Usage
