Does anybody know a good tool to assist in the development of an SNMP MIB with correct formatting and syntax?

If possible, it should be free and run under Linux.

According to this net-snmp howto, there is a tool called smilint from the smilib package that they recommend. Sounds more directed than using snmptranslate.

See also this ietf page for descriptions on usage.

Actually I am aware of these tools and am quite comfortable with writing SNMP MIBS. I wasn't really looking for a syntax checker, rather a tool which will speed up the process.
A: 

You could always use the snmp-mode in emacs for syntax highlighting.
