-====== Preparation before Coming to the Macro Course ======
-Before you come to the course please:
-  - Install the newest version Fiji.
-  - Download textbook and sample images.
-  - If you have problem, call Kota (ex 8404).
-**Details: **\\
-===== 1. Installation of Fiji. =====
-Fiji is a plugin-bundled distribution of ImageJ. We use this because scripting editor function is excellent.\\
-If you already have Fiji in your machine, just do the step 2.\\
-==== INSTRUCTION ====
-\\
-**step 1. Download  and install Fiji**\\
-Depending on the OS of your laptop, Consult either [[http://pacific.mpi-cbg.de/wiki/index.php/Install_Fiji_on_Windows|Windows]], [[http://pacific.mpi-cbg.de/wiki/index.php/Install_Fiji_on_MacOSX|MacOSX]] or [[http://pacific.mpi-cbg.de/wiki/index.php/Install_Fiji_on_Linux|Linux]] page.
-**step 2. Upgrading**\\
-Start Fiji (described in above links).  If your Fiji is not in the latest condition, Fiji automatically asks you to update the program. If you see that dialog, just accept. After updating is finished, close Fiji once, restart.
-Now, Do  [Help -> Update Fiji...]. This may invoke another round of updating. Repeat this process until everything is up-to-date.
-===== 2. Downloading course materials. =====
-Please download zipped file from the download link I will send you.
-The zip archive contains some sample images we use in the course. Copy them in the laptop that you use in the course, to somewhere you could access easily.
-Textbook PDF could be downloaded from [[https://github.com/cmci/ij_textbook2|here]]. Right click (win) or control-click (mac) and then save the file in your local disk.
-For those who are more comfortable with printed textbook, please do it yourself.
-===== Misc =====
-Please bring down power extension cable (for your laptop) for the course! Those of you with PC working without external supply for more than 2hours will be ok without. Since each of you use laptop full time during the course, its always that the power supply becomes problem. Bring down extension cable with multiple sockets if you could find it in your lab.
