it's an environment variable. it refers to the home directory of the owner
of the process. The standard location of an individual user's html files is
in a directory named "public_html" within their home directory. You chose
to call it "www" instead. The "right" solution would be to add your desired
location to the list, rather than remove everything else. Since only you
are likely to be using this system, you have probably broken nothing by
doing it that way.

;Path all scripts have to be in
docroot=/var/www:${HOME}/public_html:${HOME}/www
