I finally committed the default environment variables code so you should
now be able to remove any system or user scope environment variables.
The following are the default paths:

KISYSMOD on windows and linux:

${KICAD_INSTALL_PREFIX}/share/kicad/modules

KISYSMOD on OSX:

/Library/Application Support/kicad/modules

KISYS3DMOD on windows and linux:

${KICAD_INSTALL_PREFIX}/share/kicad/modules/packages3d

KISYSMOD on OSX:

/Library/Application Support/kicad/modules/packages3d

KIGITHUB on all platforms:

https://github.com/KiCad

All three environment variables are stored in the kicad_common
configuration file in the [EnvironmentVariables] group.  You can edit
them or add new environment variables with a text editor until I get the
path dialog work complete.  I'm not sure when I'll get to that as I am
working on a serious memory leak in Eeschema.

Cheers,

Wayne
