     (user specific configurations).

     format is: OPTION:VALUE .
     STARTFILE:HOME_URL
     DEFAULT_INDEX_FILE:HOME_URL|INDEX_FILE #Accessible when using the key I.
     INCLUDE:filename[for setting1,setting2]

     - STARTFILE and DEFAULT_INDEX_FILE could be used with a bookmark file or
     jumpfile.
     - When using a local file for STARTFILE or DEFAULT_INDEX_FILE, use
     file://localhost/PATH.
     - The variable WWW_HOME will take precedence over STARTFILE.
     - INCLUDE can be used to have specific values and include the system
     lynx.cfg or other files.
