5 [contrib] allow to specify alternative conf location - ID: 1545847

Last Update: Comment added ( karl-ia )

Details:

Dear Internet Archive Team,

to resolve my own request [1485819] I hereby provide a
way to tell Heritrix an alternative location of the
conf folder.
After this patch the cmdline is parsed for a
heritrix.conf setting and if present, this is used to
override the default HERITIX_HOME/conf setting.

With this patch things get alot easier when you
regularly test new patched versions of heritrix as you
don't have to tweak the configs/profiles each and every
time again - you can simply store them in a seperate
folder and just direct heritrix to use them.

Any comments are welcome
Olaf Freyer
