And copy "names.dmp" and "nodes.dmp" to data directory: "$HOME/.taxonkit".

We use taxonkit on a shared server with many users.

Would you be able to honour an env variable like $TAXONKIT_DB so that we can put the files in one place that's not a home directory?

Then we can have global export TAXONKIT_DB=/opt/data/taxonkit/ and the two files will be found there?

We'd rather not set global aliases for --names-file and --nodes-file
