Build option to specify dependency executable name/path

[gabokamaze]

Hi,
To begin, thank you for this nice tool.

In the same manner than --alternate-executable, could it be possible to add new argument to the build.sh script in order to specify path to dependencies. I am thinking for example about ripgrep, but maybe also for other tool(s) that is eventually used by bat-extras and I do not know their existence.

To be clear : I have ripgrep installed in a non-standard folder, and I do not want to add this folder to any $PATH env variable (I have an alias rg pointing toward the executable) -> is there a workaround for this kind of usage ?

If no workaround, could it be possible to add something like --ripgrep-executable or make --alternate-executable be able to manage comma separated list to specify bat, ripgrep, ... executable paths ?

Thanks by advance for your response.
Regards

There is now! Implemented as of 7107e16:

./build.sh --alternate-executable:ripgrep "/my/path/to/rg"
