Hi Sebastian,

Here is the page for how to use Jython with ImageJ:
http://marcora.caltech.edu/jython_imagej_howto.htm

I think that first you have to install Jython to your machine, then you have
 to include the Jython jar file on you classpath. Having a . and jar file in
your local directory is not enough you have to explicitly say something like:

-cp ij.jar;C:\Jython21\jython.jar

I have been experimenting with using the new Java 6 Scripting interface, JSR
223. I got Groovy, JavaScript and JRuby to work right away. Jython did not
work in first try, but I am planning to go back.
I think that JSR 223 is an easier way to access scripting languages from
Java. I have a post about my results:

Hope this is helpful,
