For include files you can set CPATH, for libraries you'll need to set LIBRARY_PATH. See http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Environment-Variables.html Both can contain different paths separated by a colon (:). How to set environment variables depends on the shell you use. csh uses the 'set' command, while sh and bash use 'export'. See your shell's manual page for details.
