      -v, --verbose                     Turn on verbose mode
      -i                                Reformats in-place
      --dump-config                     Dumps the default style used to stdout
      -c[file], --config=[file]         Style config file
      Lua scripts...                    Lua scripts to format
      "--" can be used to terminate flag options and force all following
      arguments to be treated as positional options

The program will attempt to automatically use the current directory's .lua-format file if no config file is passed in the command line. In case there's no file, it will fallback to the default configuration.

Configuration parameters not specified fallback to their default values.
