Improv paths (#936)

* Refactored main

Improved the main script.
Added configurable directories that default to sane places outside of the install directory.
This should resolve the write permission errors.

* Modified paths to use environment variables

Replaced relative paths with better and configurable ones.

* Reformatted

* Added default paths to init

The tests do not run the main script
