Configuration
  Use '--config=<file>' to override the default config file.

  Use '--config-dir=<dir>' to override the default config directory.

  The config directory and config file must be created by the user.

  The config file in the config directory must be named 'config'.

  It is a plain text file that can contain any of the commands listed in the
  'Commands' section of the '--help' output. Each command must be on its own
  line. Lines that begin with the '#' character are treated as comments.

  peaclock --config "./path/to/config/file"
  peaclock --config-dir "~/.config/peaclock"
