Found in LDraw FAQ:

26. Where does LDraw look for files?
LDraw looks for files in the following folders, in the following order:

The current folder.
The P folder.
The PARTS folder.
The MODELS folder.

That's perfectly clear, but still I have to ask:
What if a file exists in two or more of these folders?
Will it say: "Hey I found in 'The current folder'! Now I don't have to look
anymore."?
Or will it keep scanning and overwrite latest found-path?

I've updated the faq; I added verbiage to indicate that LDraw stops
looking, once it's found a file.  I also corrected the search order.
