Overview
Comment:Inserted %USERPROFILE% between %FOSSIL_HOME% and %LOCALAPPDATA% in the code that chooses where the user's account-wide _fossil file lives on Windows. (This is the Windows analog to the ~/.fossil file on POSIX systems.) Also updated the docs to match.

`--vfs VFSNAME`: Load the named VFS into SQLite.


Environment Variables
---------------------








`APPDATA`: (Windows) Location of the `~/.fossil` file. The first

environment variable found in the environment from the list


`FOSSIL_HOME`, `LOCALAPPDATA` (Windows), `APPDATA` (Windows),

`HOMEDRIVE` and `HOMEPATH` (Windows, used together), and `HOME` is
used as the location of the `~/.fossil` file.

`EDITOR`: Name the editor to use for check-in and stash comments.
Overridden by the local or global `editor` setting or the `VISUAL`
environment variable.

`FOSSIL_BREAK`: If set, an opportunity will be created to attach a
debugger to the Fossil process prior to any significant work being

`--vfs VFSNAME`: Load the named VFS into SQLite.


Environment Variables
---------------------

On most platforms, the location of the user’s account-wide `.fossil`
file is either `FOSSIL_HOME` or `HOME`, in that order. This ordering
lets you put this file somewhere other than at the top of your user’s
home directory by defining `FOSSIL_HOME` to mask the always-defined
`HOME`.

For native Windows builds and for Cygwin builds, the file is called
`_fossil` instead to avoid problems with old programs that assume file
names cannot begin with a dot, as was true in old versions of Windows
and in MS-DOS. (Newer Microsoft OSes and file systems don’t have a
problem with such files, but still we take the safe path in case you’re
on a system with software that can’t cope.) We start our search with
`FOSSIL_HOME` again, but instead of falling back to `HOME`, we instead
try `USERPROFILE`, then `LOCALAPPDATA`, then `APPDATA`, and finally we
concatenate `HOMEDRIVE` + `HOMEPATH`.


`EDITOR`: Name the editor to use for check-in and stash comments.
Overridden by the local or global `editor` setting or the `VISUAL`
environment variable.

`FOSSIL_BREAK`: If set, an opportunity will be created to attach a
debugger to the Fossil process prior to any significant work being
