on attempting to open an image directly  from command line

e.g.

imagej  \home\pics\imag01.pgm

does not work. instead it just loads imagej
and then i have to use the open interface for each image.
this is time consuming when there are many images need to be opened.

version is 1.42 linux installation


however it does work for the mac version

e.g.

open -a imagej ~\pics\imag01.pgm


Im not sure if ive missed something in the setup.
any help in getting this to work is appreciated.
