Summary: TCC.EXE can be patched so it always looks for its configuration  file in the root directory of your hard disk regardless of which is the  current directory.

The command-line version of Turbo C, called TCC.EXE, wants its 
configuration file to be in the current directory (unless you are
using MS-DOS 3.x).  To make its configuration file available from 
everywhere on a hard disk, change the name of the configuration file
from TURBOC.CFG to \TCC.CFG and put the configuration file TCC.CFG 
in the root directory of the hard disk.  On my copy of TCC.EXE version 
1.0, the patch needs to be made at offset 0x292a6 from the beginning 
of TCC.EXE.  (It may be different for your copy, because I hear not all
version 1.0s are identical.)  Be sure to null-terminate the filename.

Like all unofficial patches, this one should be used with caution
and should not be applied to your original disk.
