[Feature Request] Store config file in the application folder

[shakir-timur]

What is the purpose of your issue?

• Bug report (encountered problems with youtube-dl)
• Site support request (request for adding support for a new site)
• Feature request (request for a new functionality)
• Question
• Other

---

Please add a functionality to store the "config.txt" file in the same folder the youtube-dl.exe application itself is located. This will make sort of a portable installation without need to modify files in %appdata% folder.

Probably the code starts here, but I'm not familiar with Python.

Thanks.

I'd like to take this issue myself.
Is there a specific process for being assigned to a ticket?
