Suppress “Expected '===' and instead saw '=='.” error in jslint

Question

How can I stop the error message Expected \'===\' and instead saw \'==\'. from appearing in jslint. Doesn\'t seem to be an option.

This is pretty hot off the press.

Douglas Crockford has just added an 'eqeq' option to the JSLint tool.

See one of the June 12, 2011 edits on GitHub:

Ad the time of writing it hadn't been updated on the JSLint front page, but i've tested it with the following and get no == related warnings:

/*jslint eqeq: true*/
var x = 0;
if (x == 1) {
    alert("test");
}
