AHHH, I know what is going on.

Actually, I think you will find that (on windows 98) it first looks in the
startup directory for .vtclrc, if it does not find it, then it goes to
env(HOME).

The reason I was getting confused is that my shortcuts to start up
the 2 version had different values in the startup directory property.

In the 1.52 version, it pointed to the desktop (where no .vtclrc existed)
and the 1.60 version pointed to the directory where 1.60 vtcl lives, and
there is a local .vtclrc there. Now that I understand this, I like it.
