Done. Note that I hate cluttering the top level of users’ home 
directories with dotfiles. The configuration system I have implemented 
follows the proposal I previously wrote up here 
<http://create.freedesktop.org/wiki/Video_Format_Pref>.

Or, the tl;dr version: you can specify the video format in the following 
ways, in order of decreasing priority:

* an environment variable VIDEO_FORMAT
* a per-user config file ~/.config/video_format
* a systemwide config file /etc/video_format

The variable value, or the file contents, should consist of the string 
“PAL” or “NTSC”.
