+This is a (likely incomplete) list of settings that can be used in your config
+file. In general, any settings that pep8 supports we also support and we add
+the ability to set ``max-complexity`` as well.

+- ``exclude``: comma-separated filename and glob patterns
+  default: ``.svn,CVS,.bzr,.hg,.git,__pycache``
+
+- ``filename``: comma-separated filename and glob patterns
+  default: ``*.py``
+
+- ``select``: select errors and warnings to enable which are off by default
+
+- ``ignore``: skip errors or warnings
+
+- ``max-line-length``: set maximum allowed line length
+  default: 79
+
+- ``format``: set the error format

+- ``max-complexity``: McCabe complexity threshold
