Use environment variable to define configuration file path #257

Closed jimdoescode closed 4 years ago

It seems like it would be pretty useful to be able to define a place other than the home directory for the custom configuration file. By using an environment variable it seemed like you could maintain a minimal footprint in the code and maintain backwards compatibility with the existing functionality.
