Add an additional note explaining what the '-S mix' flag is for #1619

Closed pepicrft closed 2 years ago

pepicrft commented 2 years ago

Context

I'm new to Elixir and while reading the documentation about Mix there was a code snippet that got me thinking about the purpose of the flag -S mix when invoking iex. I went straight to run iex --help but the output from the help, assuming that's the right way to get it as a user, lacked documentation that flag.

What

I went ahead and added an additional phrase for people that might come across the same question. Please, let me know that's align how you'd expect this to be addressed or I should explore something else instead. For example improving the iex --help output. Thanks in advance for taking your time to review this tiny change.
