None that I'm aware of. Just edit the .profile file at ~/ (or create one if
you don't have it) using the Terminal app. Mine looks like this (it also
includes an expanded manpage search criteria):

$ cat ~/.profile

##
# DELUXE-USR-LOCAL-BIN-INSERT
# (do not remove this comment)
##
echo $PATH | grep -q -s "/usr/local/bin"
if [ $? -eq 1 ] ; then
    PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin:/Developer/Tools
    export PATH
fi
export MANPATH="/usr/share/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/X11R6/man"
