Installation
Download Drop_Macro.jar and place it in the ImageJ plugin folder.
Requires
ImageJ ver 1.44h or higher (ImageJ, upgrade page).
Description
Opens a small window that allows you to drag and drop ImageJ macro and/or ImageJ Javascript files. You could load as many files as you want by simply drag-and-dropping files diretly from filesystem brawser such as “windows explorer” or “Finder (osx)”. Dropped files will all be listed in the drop-down menu. Selecting one macro/scrip and clicking “Run” button will run the macro/script. “Clear” button will clear the list of dropped files. “Code” button will open the code, and let you edit the file.
The reason I made this plugin is to edit macro/scripts using external editors such as Notepad++ or Vim. Since DropScript pluing accesses the code in the saved file everytime “Run” is clicked, you could edit the code in external editor and save while the macro/script is keep on being listed in the DropScript drop-down menu.
