Gives the location of a tool's parameter file
paccess parameterfile [mode]
paccess can be used to determine where a user is picking up
their parameter file from, or which parameter file will be
used by default. If the mode is "rw" (the default if not specified)
and no user writeable file exists in $PDIRS, $PFILES, or $UPARM, one
is copied from the reference directories to a user writeable location
and that file name is returned.
The optional mode argument can be use to search for read or
read-write files.
Will return where dmlist.par lives. It will copy it to the
user's writeable location if one does not exist.
Will return where a "read"-able version of dmlist.par lives.
If the user does not have one in their write-able directory
then the location of the reference parameter file is returned.
