Greetings,

hdfview.bat on Windows fails to parse file name argument(s). When opening a
file from Explorer or from the command-line, HDFView launches, but the
specified file(s) is (are) not opened. I believe the issue derives from a
syntax error in the batch file, specifically the following line of <HDFView
install directory>/2.11.0/bin/hdfview.bat:

start "HDFView" "%JAVABIN%\javaw.exe" -Xmx1024M
-Djava.library.path="%INSTALLDIR%\lib" -Dhdfview.root="%INSTALLDIR%" -jar
"%INSTALLDIR%\lib\jhdfview.jar" $*

Shouldn't the "$*" be a "%*"? Making this substitution rectified this issue
for me.

Best,
Russell
