  I found that this repository had no pull request yet so I contacted the owner to get permission to work on it after filing an issue, then I got to work researching how to approach this using C++. My C++ is rusty, so it took me some time to work my way through the code. Finally, with a little research, I worked out that I could use the existing CMake file in this project to set up the tomlplusplus implementation which would allow me to parse a config.toml file and load default options into the tool. I added a new function, loadFromConfig, that reads the TOML file and populates the CLI options struct with values like output, include, exclude, and recent. This way, users can define their preferences once and avoid repeating long command-line arguments.

  Unless you want to make your own config file parser as an exercise (which is a good idea) I'd recommend using toml++.

• Preferred way to read in application settings/config in C++

  Added bonus, tomlplusplus is a solid C++ implementation, actively updated, and easy to drop into a project (header only, CMake, vcpkg, Conan, etc.). Very easy to use for what I've needed.

• What are some use cases of using shared_ptr in a single threaded program?
  1 project | /r/cpp | 3 May 2022

  I use them in toml++ to store the path of the source document for all the data nodes parsed from that document. Storing it as a separate std::string allocation for every single object would have been very wasteful, and the alternative would have been to make an overall document class that owned everything, which I didn't want to do, so shared_ptr was a good compromise.
