Application or Project

projectM Standalone SDL2 Frontend (includes the Steam app)

Is Your Enhancement Related to a Problem?

projectMSDL.properties is created in a specific directory, but there is no command line option to override it.

Your Suggested Enhancement

Add a command line option to specify a projectMSDL.properties file. Since there is a save option inside the projectMSDL app, may need to check if a config file was passed in, and make a decision whether changes should be saved to the currently loaded file. Perhaps the user could be provided the context of what save file is currently loaded.

I think also maybe copying the default file with the helpful commented out setting descriptions to the user file might be helpful.
