Yes, this is possible, and there are actually two signatures. One which
takes the menu label and a macro-style argument string, and the other
taking an ImagePlus as a first argument. When calling from plugins, you
definitely want to use the latter because that minimizes chances of
interfering with other things going on in ImageJ (such as: running a macro
in parallel, or accidentally opening another image while your plugin is
running).

For the record: it *is* the Jenkins website, but more specifically you are
looking at the Javadocs. Jenkins is our butler; she continually builds the
Javadocs (and does a lot of other tasks, too, proving once again how
useful computers are at automating things).

Ciao,
Johannes
