getMainfolder

Functions checks for a global setting of the mainfolder (either by setting the environment
variable "MADRAT_MAINFOLDER" or by setting the R option with the same name). If none of these
is available the user will be asked for a directory. If this is not provided a temporary folder
will be used.

Provides a framework which should improve reproducibility and
transparency in data processing. It provides functionality such as
automatic meta data creation and management, rudimentary quality
management, data caching, work-flow management and data aggregation.
* The title is a wish not a promise. By no means we expect this
package to deliver everything what is needed to achieve full
reproducibility and transparency, but we believe that it supports
efforts in this direction.
