Add server configuration with command args

 ```
 
+## Run it yourself
+```
+Usage:
+  telnet [options]
+
+Options:
+  --debug
+       Enables garrulous debug logging.
+  -o   
+       Directory where text files will be stored.
+  -s
+       Directory where required static files exist (like the banner).
+  -h
+       Hostname of the server to rsync saved files to.
+  -p
+       Port to listen on.
+```
+
+The default configuration (without any flags) is essentially:
+
+```
+telnet -o /var/write -s . -p 2323
+```
+
 ## How it works
 The user's input is simply written to a flat file in a given directory. To provide web access, a web server (sold separately) serves all files in this directory as `plain/text`. That's it!
