Imagine having lynx.cfg in /usr/local/share as a generic all purpose
config file in a networked environment where /usr/local/share is shared
between all machined in a heterogenous network environment.

Then the file could include /usr/local/lib/lynx.cfg which would have
architecture specific configuration elements.  Different system specific
applications to handle displaying images would be one example.

Then also include ~/lynx.cfg for user specified configurations.

Though, personally, I would have different methods of handling this.
