I added a global settings file support similar to .gafrc and .gschemrc
a long time ago.  I don't know why the gtk hid chose not to use it and
do its own thing in an incompatible way.  Saving project-specific
settings in a user-global directory seems wrong to me.

The settings syntax is:

# comment
name = value

The name matches the usual help/option/xresource/etc name.  Whitespace
is optional.

It doesn't have any, aside from what it reads from .Xdefaults.
