If it can't be specified dynamically, it is nice to have config files located in the ~/.config directory. This follows the standard used by many thousands of other programs and prevents the homedir from getting unreasonably cluttered with configs. Docs still need to be updated.

I would suggest using ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config} (via e.g. xdg-basedir), rather than hardwiring the path.
