The commercial product Amiga Lint is available for $99 direct from Gimpel
Software in Maryland or at your local dealer for, I'm sure, a significant
discount.  The latest version, V3.03, works very well.  (IMHO, the combo
of Aztec 3.6a plus Gimpel Lint is nearly as good as Lattice V5.02.)

>Is there an Amiga ftp site at which I could pick up a copy?

Think about how much work goes into a really good Lint, and you'll realize
that $99 for one is a bargain.  No one is going to write one and give it away.

>I saw some sort of lint program in a Fish disk listing

What you saw was a set of support files for using Version 2.nn of Gimpel
Lint, written by William Althoff.  An updated and corrected version of
these is included with V3.03.
