Subject: Cannot customize irb initialization

Why can't I give a configuration file as argument when I run irb? It
seems that looks for conf files in the order:
~/.irbrc
.irbrc
irb.rc
_irbrc
$irbrc

I would however like to have more flexibility than that. I would like
to be able to use a special conf file in whichever directory I am. Is
it only me who wants this flexibility? To me the ability to give a
conf file as argument seems like the most obvious argument to have in
irb.

Best regards,
Fredrik
