I tried HDF_BROWSER -- it needs tweaks for each different style of
hdf 4 file.

Sometimes converting hdf4 to hdf5 produces a much simpler file. There is
an h4toh5 utility to do this. The free R stats package has an hdf5 reader
that can be used to get a 2nd opinion on whether the hdf5 file makes any
sense.
