I usually use it as:

/s /w

which must generates a logfile.

Right. I only wanted to generate a logfile without applying any changes.

>that it runs clean, abstract objects takes several seconds to run with
>/w. With /c/w, it instantly jumps to the next category box, like it

Not all command line parsers are created equal. Try it as:

/c /w

and see if that makes a difference. The space might not matter to humans,
but you never know with a computer.

>skipped the check. I have been all the way thru checkini.txt and I am

/C - Write corrections to ini-files. The default is to diagnose
only. If this option is specified the program will ask
confirmations for all changes it may want to do in your ini-
files.

This says that without the /c, checkini will not make any changes to your
.ini files. All you will get is whatever level of logging you requested.
