ScanImage and Ephus can be customized and extended via user functions which respond to events generated by ScanImage or Ephus. In ScanImage, for more advanced requirements, user functions can be written to follow a 'plugin' pattern, in which the same function responds to multiple events.
To promote code sharing, to either reuse or mimic, we maintain a repository here of user functions and plugins developed by either the core developers or members of the ScanImage/Ephus user communities.
Please let us know (mailto:iyerv@janelia.hhmi.org?subject=\[ScanImage/Ephus Plugin\]) if you have any user functions or plugins that you would like to contribute!
