Hi

I have a IJ macro that when it opens it asks me to select the source folder where i have a bunch of images that the macro cycles through and processes.

Is there a way to select this folder directly in the command line, such as change:

start "C:\Program Files\ImageJ" imagej.exe -macro folderprocess.txt

to something like.

start "C:\Program Files\ImageJ" imagej.exe -macro folderprocess.txt "C:\Test1"

I know i can add the folder reference into the macro itself, but this means i have to change the macro each time if i change the folder destination. Basically, i am trying to automate the call function to the macro via commandline as i can dynamically create the "C:\Test1" location reference. I cant do this within an IJ macro.

Any advice greatly appreciated.
