+Tuning:
+-------

+The following environment variables affect MesaFX. Those that affect Glide
+only, are beyond the scope of this file. Entries that don't have a "Value"
+field, can have any value whatsoever
+       ex: set MESA_FX_IGNORE_CMBEXT=y
+
+"Note" (*) means that the environment variable affects Glide, too; also, if
+the var is not found in the environment, it is searched in windoze registry.
+"Note" (!) means that the environment variable is not working as expected;
+may have undefined effects, might have effects only at Glide level or might
+not have any effect whatsoever. Caveat emptor! Those are to be revised soon.
+
+It is recommended to leave the envvars alone, so that Mesa/Glide will run with
+default values. Use them only when you experience crashes or strange behavior.
