Re: ImageJ macro calling, e.g. exec("bash_script &"); // in background.

That shouldn't work.
The `&` symbol is specific to bash and similar *nix shells.
On the other hand, ImageJ (Java rather) doesn't run bash when it
processes exec() in the ImageJ macro.

I don't know of a simple way to do what you want, i.e. launch a
non-blocking exec process from an ImageJ macro.
