Automatically open multiple tabs in Firefox browser from DOS command line with URL in incremental sequence numbering (Rev: 1.1)

To easily read online comics, I use the Firefox browser add-on, AutoPager that will automatically loads the next comic page of a site inline when you reach the end of the current comic page for infinite scrolling of the comic content. However, AutoPager did not work on some of the comics sites. Hence, I have created a .bat file,
0_openMultipleTabsInFirefox_fromCommandLine.bat
(1157 bytes. MD5 checksum: 9ebefed48915a157d23dcab3a60420df)

to automatically open multiple tabs in Firefox browser from DOS command line with URL in incremental sequence numbering.

For example, if a comic website, www.abc.com has a comic with title xxx with
page 2 URL as http://www.abc.com/comic/xxx/01/?2,
page 3 URL as http://www.abc.com/comic/xxx/01/?3, and so on until
page 34 URL as http://www.abc.com/comic/xxx/01/?34

By opening a command prompt in Windows XP SP3 x86 Operating System (OS), and enter the below command:

0_openMultipleTabsInFirefox_fromCommandLine.bat http://www.abc.com/comic/xxx/01/?


The Firefox browser will automatically open multiple tabs with URL in incremental sequence numbering from http://www.abc.com/comic/xxx/01/?2 to http://www.abc.com/comic/xxx/01/?34. After finish reading a comic page, I will use Firefox browser keyboard shortcut, [CTRL] w to close that page tab.
