You can set it on the database you connect to (with ALTER DATABASE mydb
SET search_path TO ...) or on the user you use to connect to the
database (with ALTER USER myuser SET search_path TO ...).

With pgAdmin 1.8, you can also use the new Macros feature which allows
you to bind a key to a SQL macro. Whenever you will hit this key in the
query tool, the recorded query will be sent.
