When writing a new config file, it fails with a long and cryptic error message if it contains errors.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be useful to have a --validate switch that could be used to make sure a config file is valid without having try to execute it first.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Validate is used at runtime against a json schema file, but the output isn't ideal. It also doesn't drill down to the specific problem. Adding specificity would be great, but would be a lot of work, when a simple pass/fail would suffice.
