Actually, you can define global defaults in the GobalDefaults.plist  
file, which lives in the same directory as the GNUstep configuration  
file (and you can also put simple string values directly in  
GNUstep.conf using GNUSTEP_EXTRA if you don't want the overhead of  
loading GlobalDefaults.plist).
See http://www.gnustep.org/resources/documentation/Developer/Base/Reference/index.html 
 and the NSUserDefaults documentation.
