Derin,
Actionscript is a superset of javascript, so you ought to be able to use
that as well as imagej's macro language.
If you are refering to OpenCV, my expeience is that the libs weren't really
very portabel. This is why I started with ImageJ. As a long time C/C++
programmer, I can say that Java and imageJs plugins are easier to learn how
to use.
