If this is in the config file, then for many of the variables Xitami
tries the value as an environment variable name before trying it as a
filename (that's how TEMP works :-) ).  So you could try just:

  variable = LOGS

And see if that will work for you.  (Since I'm not sure which option it
is you're trying to set, I can't check for you whether this "try as an
environment name" will apply.)
