##### 16.8.7.8 Automatically loading python files at startup

At startup, GPS will automatically load all python files found in the directories `share/gps/plug-ins` and `$HOME/.gps/plug-ins`.

In addition, python files located under `<prefix>/share/gps/python` can be imported (using the `import` command) by any python script.

You can also set the `PYTHONPATH` environment variable to add other directories to the python search path.
