[FLASH-USERS] Turn off checkpoint files in FLASH3.2?

[David]

Hi,

Commenting out the CHECKPOINT_FILE_ONLY call in Driver_evolveFlash.F90 didn't seem to do it, so I just commented out the calls within IO_outputFinal and IO_outputInitial - that worked.

Thanks,
-Dave

So I'd like to turn off the initial & final dumps of the checkpoint files, because each of these takes about 10x of the space of a plot file. I can switch off the the periodic dumps (in wall-clock time, iterations, and simulation time), but I can't find where to turn off the initial dump - indeed I haven't yet tracked down where IO_outputFinal and IO_outputInitial are even called in the code.
