Data not saving in the output directory, even when enabled true in the json file.

There is an issue with the output data (MINseed). I have tried with two linux machines and I was facing the same issue that the data was not being written in the output directory.
When backtracked the issue, I found following errors
File "/home/navneet/miniconda3/envs/rsudp/lib/python3.7/site-packages/rsudp/c_write.py", line 126, in write outfile = self.outdir + test TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'bool' and 'str'

On further debugging I found that the outdir has been intialized to data_dir and data_dir has been initialized with a boolean value False. When the c_write.py is accessing these global variables initialized in init.py , it is getting the default value rather than the updated value and that is where the issue arises. I think most probably this a multithreading issue and these variables needs to be made thread safe.

To resolve this I manually initialized the variables to my output directory in the init.py file. Somewhat like this ->

output_dir = "/home/navneet/rsudp"
odir = output_dir
data_dir = os.path.join(odir, 'data')
scap_dir = os.path.join(odir, 'screenshots')

#output_dir = False
#data_dir = False
#scap_dir = False

and then it started saving the files. Please fix this bug, it is specifically for the linux machines running Linux 5.4.0-81-generic x86_64 kernel
