I hope, the following now helps.
Maxima home page -> docs -> user interface tips
( http://maxima.sourceforge.net/ui-tips.shtml )
you find there
' MAXIMA_USERDIR
Points to a directory for user customization files. Maxima's
default search paths include MAXIMA_USERDIR. Default value:
$HOME/.maxima.
Maxima checks for the presence of the files maxima-init.lisp and maxima-init.mac in the
search path and loads them if available. The most logical place to put these files is in
MAXIMA_USERDIR, as defined above. '
search path: file_search_maxima and file_search_lisp are two global variables and store
a list of search directories. Ask Maxima about them.
Best wishes
