HDF-EOS formats are as follows:
Hdf-Eos2:hdfeos.he2.HE2File:he2
Hdf-Eos5:hdfeos.he5.HE5File:he5
Type first one and then click OK. Repeat it for the second format.
“Browse …” for
“Help Document”. Choose the “ug08hdfeos.html” in the directory …../
Without this change the HDF-EOS user’s guide will only open as text in
Help->HEView User’s Guide. However, with change “User’s Guide” will include both HDF and HDF-EOS Plug-in User’s Guides.
Note: After first setting of HDF-EOS file format (steps 4, 5, 6, 7) HDFView creates a file called “.hdfview2.3” in your home directory (HDFView always show the location of this file in the “Log Info” at the bottom window). It contains supported file types and settings. If this file had existed from an earlier version (or if HOME directory is shared between platforms and the installation has already been done for another platform) of HDFView with HDF-EOS plugins, then you may not need to perform steps 4 to 7.
