Did you read KConfig documentation ? It's impossible to load the value of a 
key whose name you have no idea of !
Only solution I see :

NrEnvVar=2
EnvVar1=MOZILLA_HOME
Value1=/opt/netscape-37/lib
EnvVar2=TZ
Value2=ESD5EDT
...

Probably doesn't matter anyway, if kfm is extended to let the user set
those in a dialog box.
