This is a feature release. One of the most important improvements is a support for better system integration with macOS. Now ImageJ/Fiji can be installed in the Application directory. See macOS installation info in the ReadMe

All improvements:

  • Use launcher location to infer ij-dir. #5
  • Session log is saved to ~/.ijp_imagej_launcher.log to facilitate troubleshooting when not running from command
    prompt. The log is reset for each session. #6
  • Better inference of ImageJ directory on macOS - consider launcher being in subdirectory "Contents/MacOS" #7
