Upgrade to ImageJ 1.28c or later. Add the plugins to ij.jar and edit
IJ_Props.txt to add commands that run the plugins. This can be done
using the WinZip utility.

1. Drag and drop ij.jar on WinZip.
2. Click on "Add" to add each plugin. Make sure "Include subfolders" and
"Save extra folder info" are unchecked.
3. Open IJ_Props.txt by double-clicking on it and add a command for each
plugin. For example, adding 'plug-in08="Red And Blue",RedAndBlue_' to
the plugins section adds a command that runs the RedAndBlue_ plugin.

Add a submenu to to the plugins section of IJ_Props.txt and add commands
to that submenu. For example, adding 'plug-in08=>"User_Plugins"' and
'user_plugins08="Red And Blue",RedAndBlue_' adds a command to the
Plugins->User_Plugins that runs the RedAndBlue_ plugin. The applet at
"http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/applet/" is set up this way. You can also
add commands to other submenus such as File->Save As and
Process->Filters.
