### Modifying Configurations from the Command line
You can override a configuration field for the current instance of `jrnl` using `--config-override CONFIG_KEY CONFIG_VALUE` where `CONFIG_KEY` is a valid configuration field, specified in dot-notation and `CONFIG_VALUE` is the (valid) desired override value.
You can override a configuration field for the current instance of `jrnl` using `--config-override CONFIG_KEY CONFIG_VALUE` where `CONFIG_KEY` is a valid configuration field, specified in dot notation and `CONFIG_VALUE` is the (valid) desired override value. The dot notation can be used to change config keys within other keys, such as `colors.title` for the `title` key within the `colors` key.
You can specify multiple overrides as multiple calls to `--config-override`.
