You can set the default values of the environment variables under every 
version of Windows. On my Win2k system, you go to Control 
Panel/System/Advanced/Environment variables and change them there. It 
may be in a somewhat different location under other versions. I hope 
that the actual variable is named GPRC, not %GPRC. To reference an 
environment variable in a DOS script, you write %GPRC%, but you set it 
via SET GPRC=value.

I don't use the environment variable myself. I found that I had to 
create a file named _gprc, containing the single command read "gprc.gp"; 
then I put the actual defaults that I wanted in gprc.gp.
