Subject: gcc environment variables


Is it possible to set the gcc configuration via a data file rather
than environment variables.  You could place it in the same directory
as gcc.exe (perhaps calling it GCC.CFG).  GCC.CFG would have all
the options set using environment variables.  The reason this
is important is that I often run out of environment space because
of the number of environment variables gcc and other programs
define in the autoexec.bat file.  One could be allowed to override
the gcc.cfg using the environment variable approach.  Does this
seem reasonable to you?
