Thanks a lot for your comments, Curtis.

Fair enough, but I don't know if we will find time to dig as deep into ImageJ
as you propose - maybe I'd rather look into alternatives. ImageJ has served us
well for many years, but with more and more data from automated microscope
systems there is definitely need for a high performance (and this means thread
save) platform.

Maybe there should be a warning somewhere on the pages advertising
multithreaded scripting. I noticed these problems only due to a bug in an
earlier version of my script. If I had done I better job I would not have
noticed these deeper problems.

Thanks again

Thomas
