C# code should be portable between Windows and Linux using Mono. The sword project is at heart a Linux program, so figuring out where configuration files, book modules and environment variables live can sometimes cause subtle errors. This class is intended to abstract that process so that the rest of the C# project can proceed without worrying about it.
