* This class allows to set default resource folders and subfolders, which means that these

* resource key.
*
* If the general resource folder or a specific resource folder is not set, the current
* directory is searched.
*
* R is any resource that can be loaded with Thor's resource loader.
*
* Any folder/file parameter can be a full path and is relative to the current directory,
* or the directory set by the higher variables.
