Dear Stein,
re 2. I use:
function check4Plugins() {
nmeArray = newArray( "Plugin-name#1", "Plugin-name#2" );
List.setCommands;
for ( i=0; i<nmeArray.length; i++ ) {
if ( List.get(nmeArray[i]) == "" ) {
exit( "The ImageJ-PlugIn \"" + nmeArray[i] + "\" must be installed!" );
}
}
}
I faintly remember that Wayne has recommended this or a similar approach.
Regards
Herbie
