[Feature Request]: File to automatically open tag studio with specific library

Description

When i go to a directory, i would like to have some sort of shortcut to open a specific tag library that i created for that directory. It would essentially be like a shortcut for opening the program and also telling it the library (or perhaps libraries if multi-library viewing ever becomes a thing)

Solution

A custom file type could be used that could automatically be assigned to tag studio by the operating system

an example format could be like this:

• first line contains "TAG_STUDIO", this would act as a sort of sanity checker to ensure that the file will work with tag studio
• subsequent lines could be the relative or absolute path to libraries, with 1 library per line

TAG_STUDIO
C://path/to/general/memes/library
./friendgroup/memes/library

Alternatives

Alternatively, a new macro could be added that tells tag studio to generate an executable script file that will automatically open tag studio with the library that was open when it was made. It could have a dialog box hat prompts the user if the script should be relative or absolute and what kind of script it should generate (bat vs ps1 on windows for example)

I believe what you're asking for can be accomplished by creating a shortcut to TagStudio along with a launch argument to open a specific library

I think that this solution would be fine for if the library is just on my own computer. but if i want to share my library and have a "quick open" mechanism, then i think things will get more difficult. I am not entirely sure what would be the best solution for this. the first thing that comes to mind is some sort of install wizard that offers you to add tag studio to the PATH environment variables, so that when you type in "tagstudio" it will recognize it as a command and open the program, similar to how you do it with python.
