Hi Norbert,

if you install a new macro (Plugins>Macros>Install or menu item  
'install' in a text window with a macro), the old tools will be  
removed and replaced by the tools in the new macro. No need for  
uninstall.
On startup, ImageJ reads the macros from StartupMacros.txt in the  
ImageJ/macros folder.

The rightmost tool icon with the double arrow '>>' gives you quick  
access to several macro sets, e.g. the StartupMacros.

Michael
