Display data for specific countries in one command

[djuric]

First of all thank you for this project, it's very useful and easy to use :)

I think this addition would be really nice, it's a way to display data for specific countries separated by '-'. For example:

corona italy-spain

or

corona us-uk-italy-spain

This way we can compare data from selected countries in the same table.

Glad you like my work. This is a fantastic idea. Something I have been thinking about.

Some countries have - in their names. So maybe we should use a different separator. Let's say _? Thoughts?

This fixes #15.

@ahmadawais you are right, it looks like there can be a country with - in the name. And & (which would be nice) will not work either because it's recognized as next command.

So yes, _ is a good candidate. I was also thinking about / but this looks a bit odd, it implies it's a directory path :)

Thanks for the PR. Can you please update the PR in light of the latest release.

What about comma? Like: usa,italy,spain

[ahmadawais]

Aha , would be perfect!

Can you update this PR with , as the separator and use the new route where you can just define a list of countries?

@ahmadawais , added as a separator. It looks and works better then other symbols, thanks @fayazmiraz :)
