Specify directory containing .env files about dotenv-cli HOT 3 CLOSED

Yeah, I guess it might be better to keep the cli clean and lean and not add it. I guess if we really want to improve something, we could update the readme.

I see how that could be useful. I will accept a PR like this

After looking at the source code, I'm not sure -d is needed after all. Since -c cascades all files added with -e, the behavior provided by -d can already be achieved with the current functionality:

# Load vars/.env
dotenv -e vars/.env <cmd>

# Load vars/.env2
dotenv -e vars/.env2 <cmd>

# Load env/.env.local and env/.env (the use case I thought wasn't possible without -d)
dotenv -e env/.env -c <cmd>

What do you think?
