Heads-up: scripts in Fiji's menus

[dscho]

Dear all,

I just noticed that there is a bug in Fiji: if you installed any scripts
into the menu bar (e.g. by putting your script into
plugins/Scripts/File/Open_Samples/My_Example_Macro.ijm), it does not work
anymore. Even if it something else than an ImageJ 1.x macro, it does not
work because ImageJ 1.x' scripting support completely ignores Fiji's
scripting framework.

I will fix this as soon as possible.

Ciao,
Johannes

To keep everybody who is interested in the loop: Curtis and I have a
basically working version; it still needs clean-ups and a regression test
to make sure that this feature will never ever be broken again (and you
will never be told again that ImageJ wants to download BeanShell when you
have it already, thankyouverymuch) ;-)

Alas, I ran out of time so I will only be able to fix it tonight (but from
the web statistics it looks like most Fiji users prefer to do other things
on weekends anyways *grin*).

Ciao,
Johannes

Thanks to the tireless Curtis Rueden, who worked really hard on addressing
my wishes in the scripting framework even very late at night, the changes
are now released (i.e. they are uploaded to the update site for users, as
well as deployed to the Maven repositories for developers).

We celebrate this bug fix as well as an incredibly productive week with
the fifth release candidate of ImageJ2.

On behalf of the ImageJ2 team,
Johannes
