I just made a new install of 5.3 and was preparing to customize for my usual user id, but I can't find where all the global settings are, Look at /etc/profile.

I can't find a /etc/bashrc, and when I make changes to ~/.basrc or .profile the changes do not seem to take effect. There isn't an /etc/bashrc. Look in /etc/skel---where default files are kept to be installed when users are added, and read the commented .bashrc, .profile etc. P.S. if you modify .bashrc or .profile and want your changes to be recognized without logging back in type source .profile ( or source .bashrc ) at the prompt.
