SLTev does not work when started outside its directory #15

SLTev must be runnable from anywhere. Currently, very likely a number of places in SLTev assumes that ./ is SLTev-scripts.

Use the following to find SLTev's directory:

import os
sltev_home = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
print(sltev_home)

Then use sltev_home everywhere.

The first case when you run into this problem is the chmod for mwerSegmenter. Actually, mwerSegmenter should be executable already in git repo, no chmod should be needed.

Another immediate problem is that with -g, elitr-testset is cloned to the current directory. It should be cloned to sltev_home only.

The main problem is solved. I am leaving the sub-issue of where elitr-testset should be cloned aside now.
