A problem when using format file for ruff in Windows and Linux

[DK05310214]

I'm using Ruff for code formatting across different systems and have hit a snag with specifying a format file path in my settings. This setup causes an error when switching systems because the file path is not recognized on the new platform.

Is there a way to make Ruff dynamically adjust the file path based on the operating system it's running on? This would greatly enhance its usability in multi-OS environments.

@DK05310214 no, Ruff has no such functionality. I understand that you want to configure different paths on different systems (/platforms?) because the file is stored at a different location.

CC: @snowsignal I think this is interesting when thinking about the new settings

Thanks for reply. I think this feature may be very useful. The paths to configuration file can be set as a list. We can iterate through this list to search for configuration file and pass the file that found for the first time to ruff.

Would it work if you place the file in your home directory and pass a relative path --config ~/path/to/ruff.toml ?
