the problem isn't checking the paths, the problem is knowing the location • of
ldraw. if you have LDAO in place, it's easy.

Looks like i'll need to drop in a locator diolag box to look for the • ldraw.exe
(just like i do for the l3p.exe) if the path isn't found in the ldraw.ini

That would be great, just like MLCad operates. You could also look for the
LDRAW_DIR environment variable (I think that's right) that the L3P docs say
must exist (unless you use a SET command in the same DOS box).

It would also be useful if you could have the option of outputting the POV
to the same dir from a checkbox, from what I could see when I first ran
L3PAO it appeared to use C:\ for all output .pov files. I know you can set
the output dir from the POV file combo by using the elipses but it would be
easier if there was a checkbox to say "use input path for output" or
something like that.
