Renaming the configuration file. Setting defaults for my user.

[greggh]

I am hoping for two changes if possible. All settings files in my git projects that come from tools stawrt with a ".". Can you rename or at least support the mycoder.config.js being named .mycoder.config.js to match the rest of my tool configs?

The second thing is a ~/.config/mycoder/config.js. Using the XDG standards for the config directory, The idea would be that when a project root doesn't have a .mycoder.config.js file, it would check for that config file. If neither exists then it starts up like it normally does with no config.

We are using c12 to load the settings:

https://www.npmjs.com/package/c12

I just tested this and it works:

./config/mycoder.js

Is this sufficient? It seems that c12 is using this library: https://github.com/pi0/config-dir

/mycoder Can you add these alternative configuration file locations and names to the docs? Check c12 and config-dir npm libraries to confirm the details.

I've created PR #300 to address this request. The documentation now includes information about all the alternative configuration file locations supported by MyCoder through the c12 library, including:

• .mycoder.config.js in project root (dot-prefixed config file)
• .config/mycoder.js in project root (config directory)
• .mycoder.rc files (RC config files)
• ~/.config/mycoder/config.js (XDG standard user configuration)

These changes have been made to both the main README.md file and the detailed configuration documentation. Once the PR is merged, these alternative configuration options will be officially documented.

I literally just posted a response asking for that, saw you posted before I sent it, and deleted it. Thats perfect!
