Configuration file environment variable

[DaveanandMannie]

Similar to another problem where lsd looks at LS_COLORS for colours, the config var could be LS_CONFIG or LSD_CONFIG
Super selfish, but being able to keep all my configs in my nvim repo just feels nice

Edit:
I'm on Windows using Wezterm

Hi, lsd use xdg config standard, you could change it by XDG envs, please check https://github.com/lsd-rs/lsd#configuration

If I'm understanding the docs correctly. I can create the XDG_CONFIG_HOME var to lets say
C:\users\myuser\AppData\Local\nvim and it would search in in that dir for LSD/config.yml
And that would work on Windows?. I was under the impression this standard is only honoured on Linux.
Due to XDG being a widely adopted standard, do you think it would affect other programs that use the windows "known folders" system

As of right now my system does not have XDG envs set

If anyone would like to have a non-standard config file location and you are using PowerShell and not set XDG vars user or system-wide.

In your PowerShell profile $PROFILE create a small function calling lsd with --config-file

function lsd {
    <Path to lsd.exe> --config-file <path to config.yaml> @Args
}

I have been less than smart. I thought sym links where only Linux. I just made a junction with MKLINK /J and it works better than the ps1 func
