I want to create a global script in which I can establish variables, which can be used in every other script.

Would it make more sense to link to the "stable" version? Not sure what users do here.

Currently the steps are:

  1. Via menu option Project go to Project Settings > AutoLoad tab.
  2. Add your script.
  3. Give the script a self-documenting name, like: GlobalSettings.
  4. Access it via $/root/GlobalSettings.

But as suggested by @kidscancode, read the docs:
