The user.js file is a plain text file. You should be able to create one with any program that can save a file in plain text format. Or, if you prefer, you could make a copy of prefs.js, rename it to user.js, then edit the contents to just what you want.

(Sorry I can't be more specific, I am a Windows user.)
