The problem is the first one you listed: L3P.bat and L3P.exe are in the
same directory.
C:\Ldraw\L3P.bat
C:\Ldraw\L3P.exe

How should I separate them so L3P.bat will be found first?

(...) Move L3P.exe to a different directory, for instance C:\Pov, and change the path reference in the last line of L3P.bat accordingly. This way you can still use way the DOS-window openened with the shortcut for L3P for running Ldraw.exe also. (...) (26 years ago, 4-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
