Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like to collect all binaries and configurations under a folder in my USB drive, which allows me to bring everything with me on the go.

Describe the solution you'd like
A way to populate all the configuration files of komorebi under a single hierarchy, and a (portable, in the sense of widely available in Windows 10+) way to direct komorebito read those configs at launch

Describe alternatives you've considered
Do the installation on every machine being used, which is possible, but managing configs throughout different machines is hard

Additional context
Not Applicable I guess

As of v0.1.17, the configuration file can be specified when launching with a --config flag passed to komorebic start. With this, both the komorebi and komorebic binaries can be on a USB stick, along with a komorebi.json configuration file for full portability.

Thanks, this works perfectly on komorebi's side! 😄

Furthermore, I suppose it'll bring some convenience to other if the --config flag is also mentioned in the Readme.

On the other hand, I think whkd will also benefit from having a --config flag. Should I open a feature request and link it to this issue?
