How do I modify jshint sublimelinter settings?

Question

I am sorrry if this is a duplicate question.

I want to turn off warnings for semi-colon, and change appearance of warning cursors in jshint sublimelinter.

What file or menu do I need to access to change these settings?

Answer 1

See this duplicate answer, among the many questions.

Create a .jshintrc file in the directory you want to lint (a simple JSON file like this, and drop your options in there. You'll be looking for the asi option for semicolons. To set it globally you can place it in a top-level folder. You can also specify a path in Preferences: SublimeLinter Settings from the Command Palette:

            "args": [
                "--config",
                "path/to/my/file/.jshintrc"
            ],

This seems to override a nearby .jshintrc file in my case, which may not be what you want.

Apparently in Sublime Text 2 it was possible to change these in the SublimeLinter settings using a "jshint_options" setting, but this is apparently no longer possible (see issue #3).
