The JAR Resources Demo plugin at

demonstrates how to load and run a macro from a JAR file.

Subject: Macro_Runner.java runMacroFromJar(String name) adds an extra "/" to the name, bug?

Hello everybody,
I want to load and run a macro file in my plugin. The macro file is
located in the same jar with the plugin, therefore I use Macro_Runner
to load and run it.
I specified the name of the macro file like "JAR:macros/macro.ijm",
but runMacroFromJar adds a / and so the macro is not found.
What's the correct way to load a macro from a jar or is this just a
bug in the method runMacroFromJar(String name) in class   Macro_Runner
on line 48:
InputStream is = pcl.getResourceAsStream("/" + name); may should look like
InputStream is = pcl.getResourceAsStream(name)

Kind regards
Markus
