• macros - includes the MiToBo macro toolset
• plugins - includes MiToBo jar and other jars used by MiToBo
• oprunner.sh and run.sh - scripts for Linux OS

Notice: The ImageJ directory path depends on your ImageJ installation. Following, we assume that the ImageJ home directory is set up to C:\Program Files\ImageJ\.<br\>

For installing MiToBo into an existing ImageJ installation perform the following steps:

1. go to the MiToBo-bin\plugins\ directory
   • copy the Mi_To_Bo.jar to your ..\ImageJ\plugins\ directory
   • copy all jars to your ..\ImageJ\plugins\jars\ directory except the ij.jar and jars already existing
     (Notice: MiToBo requires explicite versions of some jars, other versions may not work probably, see requirements.)
     
     
2. go to the MiToBo-bin\lib\ directory
   • copy the libwin32 directory to your ..\ImageJ\ directory
     
     
3. go to the MiToBo-bin\macros\toolsets\ directory
   • copy the MiToBo_Runner.txt to your ..\ImageJ\macros\toolsets\ directory
     
     
4. configurate your ImageJ startup
   
   

• edit ImageJ configuration file ../ImageJ/ImageJ.cfg and add the library path
  
  -Djava.library.path="C:\Program Files\ImageJ\libwin32"
  
  Example of an ImageJ.cfg file:

   C:\Program Files\ImageJ\
   C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe
   -Djava.library.path="C:\Program Files\ImageJ\libwin32" -cp "C:\Program Files\ImageJ\ij.jar" ij.ImageJ

• as an alternative you can start ImageJ from command line

• open your Windows command line
• move to the ../ImageJ/ directoy
• type the following command:

  java -Djava.library.path="C:\Program Files\ImageJ\libwin32" -cp "C:\Program Files\ImageJ\ij.jar" ij.ImageJ
