Updated Wiki: Editing the CalCheck.cfg file

The CalCheck.cfg file is a text file you can edit.
You would want to edit this file if you are wanting to turn certain tests or features on or off.
This can be useful if a particular test is very noisy and puts a lot into the CalCheck.log file. In a case like that you can edit that particular test, set it to 'false', and re-run CalCheck again.
There is a "PastItems" test - if that is set to 'false' then CalCheck will ignore any items that ended in the past, and will only output any errors / warnings for current items and/or future items.


Here is the text of the CalCheck.cfg file:
