Hi,

AppendTo[$Path,"/nul"]

and

$Path=Drop[$Path,-1]

will append and remove the /nul device form your $Path.

There are no environment variables in mathematica, that
is called global variable.

$RecustionLimit=$IterationLimit=-4

may help you much by your computation ;-)

The environment of your operating system is obtained with

Environment /@ {"HOME","PATH","GS_LIB"}


Regards
  Jens
