I think this is more a support issue, as I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong. I have an eslint rc file which runs happily using eslint, but seems to cause issue when combined with Plato. If I use a yml file I get...

$ plato -d report/ --eslint .eslintrc.yml lib/**
undefined:1
rules:
^
SyntaxError: Unexpected token r
    at Object.parse (native)
    at Object.exports.exec(...\node_modules\plato\lib\cli.js:49:21)
    at Object.<anonymous>(...\node_modules\plato\bin\plato:19:5)

If I try a JavaScript version of the config file I get a similar parsing error.

I'm hoping this is a PEBCAK issue! :)
