--- Comment #4 from Curtis Rueden <ctrueden at wisc.edu> ---
Thanks Wayne. But it seems like (mostly) intended behavior to me. When you
click "Run" in the Script Editor, it compiles the Java code, saves a temporary
class file, and runs it. It does not install the plugin anywhere in ImageJ's
menus. So it's true that the only way to run the plugin again is to execute the
Script Editor's "Run" function again, which will recompile the plugin (though
there is a critical bug: https://github.com/scijava/scripting-java/issues/5).

Installing the compiled plugin into the menu structure would be a different
operation. It seems this can be done with Plugins > Install PlugIn..., although
a restart of ImageJ is needed. But the behavior is not ideal right now; in
particular, the Console window always shows "Compiling 1 file in ..." messages
when the plugin is subsequently run.

I definitely agree that all of this should be improved. But to honest it is not
something LOCI has time to work on any time soon -- we feel it is much more
urgent to improve support for Java 7 and 8, fix behavior on the latest OS X
versions, address other related launcher problems, etc. For ImageJ plugin
development, there are already (IMO better) tools such as Eclipse and NetBeans.
