Launching rom from a distant folder (with command line)

Hi,

I've done some quick test, and it appears that I can't launch (with command line) a rom located on a "distant" folder without declaring that folder in "mame.ini" before!?
mame.exe "D:\Downloads\EMULATION\MAME v145 ROMS\005.zip"

wouldn't run if it hasn't been declared in "mame.ini" file before:
rompath roms;D:\Downloads\EMULATION\MAME v145 ROMS

Is that correct?
You really can't "give" a rom to mame coming from anywhere on your disk if you haven't declared that folder before?

(I ask because you can do it with any other emulator!)
Thanks!!
