Setting output folder and displaying this information#44

…ut folder Previously, if not set directly by the menu bar option, the output folder was assigned to the one of the firstly loaded .pli file. If any other file was opened, this directory did not change anymore. In addition, there was no indication for the user about this behaviour. Now, if not directly set, the output folder is always assigned to the directory of the currently loaded .pli or .inp file. In the status bar, the path of the loaded file was displayed; now, also the path of the output folder is shown.
Resetting the GUI layout using the 'File->New' command now clears any previously set path for the output folder. The assignment of this folder will then follow the currently implemented behaviour: the folder will be set to the path of the directory of the .pli or .inp file that is subsequently loaded, if not set directly.

Previously, if not set directly by the menu bar option, the output folder was assigned to the one of the firstly loaded .pli file. If any other file was opened, this directory did not change anymore. In addition, there was no indication for the user about this behaviour.
Now, if not directly set, the output folder is always assigned to the directory of the currently loaded .pli or .inp file.
The status bar used to show the path of the loaded file only; now it also shows the path of the output folder.
If the output folder is set directly, it will remain fixed for any subsequent .pli or .inp file loaded.
Resetting the GUI will also clear the output folder path.
