%~dp0 is a cmd file's directory. If cmd and exe are next to each other, they can find each other. As well, what does the cmd do that it can't be done in the exe?

So, he will need to set an environment variable "set CM3_ROOT=E:\cm3" to let these scripts know where to find the cm3 installation.  Alternately, cm3CommandShell can be invoked with the arguments "Root E:\cm3" to tell it where to find the installation.
