No output from #format if the last item

gulp.task('lint', function () {
    return gulp.src(['**/*.js','!node_modules/**'])
        .pipe(eslint())        
        .pipe(eslint.format()); // outputs the lint results to the console.
});

Perhaps this is user error, but it appears that if .pipe(eslint.format()) is the last piped item, there is no output. Is this a bug or am I missing a gulp fundamental here?

There may be an environmental variable at play here. format waits until the end of its stream (specifically, the “prefinish” event) to process and write (to console by default). Often this issue happens when a gulp task doesn’t return the last stream; which results in gulp not waiting for it to complete. However, in this case I the example code appears to work fine.

Could you run gulp lint && echo process done to show me what your console produces?

Confirmed. Thank you so much for taking time to look at this code. #format indeed works as advertised.
