Supplied app.cfg has errors

[b-morgan]

The supplied app.cfg has errors (see below). The diff which follows reflects the changes necessary to eliminate the errors. If app.cfg is intended to mirror the settings when no config file is present, then there may be other errors I haven't discovered yet.

The file app.cfg.example is very different than the file app.cfg that appears in the `.callattendant' directory after installation. I'm not sure where app.cfg comes from.

See https://github.com/thess/callattendant/issues/31 for problems with app.cfg.example

The default app.cfg is a copy of app.cfg.example installed when the --create-folder option is specified and the .callattendant directory does not exist. Otherwise, it is just what is found there from a previous version/installation. New items will have a built-in default.

So, in your case -- I suspect something left over from the past.
