Some configuration settings can only be applied by editing this file to insert a new parameter line; they do not appear anywhere in the configuration screens. Cumulus does not write these values back out to the file on shut down, so they do not appear with default values - in other words, you need to ''add'' them if you want to set them. Make sure you place these additional parameters in the correct section as listed below.
=== Editing outside Cumulus ===
*
*If your system is configured to use a comma for a decimal separator, then you should use a comma in any decimal values that you set in this file.
*You should use a simple text editor (not a rich text editor nor word processor) to edit this file as only letters, numerical digits, decimal separators and the equals symbol are allowed in any parameter. If you use a spreadsheet program to make use of the manipulation it offers, ensure it is set to output in pure text.
*The parameter lines (attribute=value) can be in any order, but must be in the correct section. You might find it helpful to sort the attributes within a section into alphabetical order, to ''ensure you have no duplicates'' and to make it easier to find the particular parameter line you may wish to edit in the future.
