Thanks Albert,
The idea is great, but unfortunately it does not work so far:

The follwing macro (is this the way to implement what you suggested?):

//----------
call("ij.Macro.setOptions", "Sort=Aarea Order=Ascending Redirect=stones1.JPG
Background=Black");
run("Catalogue Particles");
//----------

calls the Catalogue_Particles macro but the dialog still shows as if it is run
on its own.
