Configuration
xplr can be configured using Lua via a special file
named init.lua
(example), which
can be placed in ~/.config/xplr/ (user specific) or /etc/xplr/ (global)
depending on the use case.
When a user specific configuration is available, the global configuration file will be ignored.
However, it's also possible to place the file anywhere, with any name and use
the command-line argument -c / --config to specify its path explicitely. In
that case, both ~/.config/xplr/init.lua and /etc/xplr/init.lua will be
ignored.
How Config is Loaded
When xplr loads, it first executes the built-in init.lua to set the default values, which is then overwritten by another config file, if found using the following lookup order:
--config /path/to/init.lua > ~/.config/xplr/init.lua > /etc/xplr/init.lua
