I admit that I'm usually the one who created the batch scripts I was using to test that feature with. Is that batch file doing anything unusually complex? The batch file (or exe for that matter) needs to accept a path (to the file to open) as a parameter for things to work.

I can make a Windows build that will spit out some useful debug info when launching external programs/scripts if interested.
The default in Sigil seems to be to run the Run Inkscape!.bat file. That does a cd bin and then start Inkscape.exe. Either running Inkscape.exe or modifying the batch file to bin\Inkscape.exe %1 seems to work.

Anyhow, I've downloaded the latest from GitHub and it's compiling as I type.

Edit: compile finished. The first image I tried to view popped up a very small window. Dragged a corner to a more reasonable size and looks good.
