Note

• The function produces links to files that are NOT absolute paths BUT relative ones.
  When relative paths are used, the user should be careful of the folder from which the simulation is launched.
  A function allows to transform these relative paths into absolute ones. (see examples of .setPattern).

• The order of files matters!
  For instance the first link below --PFG_PARAMS_LIFE_HISTORY-- flag (e.g. PFG Albert) has to match with the first item below the --PFG_PARAMS_DISPERSAL-- flag (must be PFG Albert too).
