// loadConfig initializes and parses the config using a config file and command

// The configuration proceeds as follows:
// 1) Start with a default config with sane settings
// 2) Pre-parse the command line to check for an alternative config file
// 3) Load configuration file overwriting defaults with any specified options
// 4) Parse CLI options and overwrite/add any specified options

// The above results in functioning properly without any config settings
// while still allowing the user to override settings with config files and
// command line options. Command line options always take precedence.
