//_________________________________________________________________________
// Macro to create the tag files from:
// i)  AliESDs that are stored locally.
// ii) AliESDs that are stored in the CAF.
// iii)AliESDs that are stored in alien.
// The tag files are stored according to the value set in the SetStorage method
// Use Case : 
//          SetStorage(0) --> store the tags locally
//          SetStorage(1) --> store the tags in the grid
//          else the program will abort!!!                                    
//                                             
// As a final step the user can create a single merged tag file.
