The simple way to achieve the effect seems to be to run ImageJ in a
virtual (os) machine like VMWare, that can save its complete state (I
didn't try). The discussion here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/424341/java-saving-and-reloading-a-vm-state
is interesting. Maybe someone can check the different solutions
proposed. From quickly checking it I got the impression that there is
not really a good java only solution at the time being.
