It looks like you are using a newer Java version than I do, whose 
javadoc is stricter than Java 6'.

The first error should be fixed by replacing the "{@link 
fiji.util.Circle_Fitter}" with "Fiji_Plugin's Circle_Fitter class" 
(Fiji_Plugins is no longer a dependency, hence the javadoc for that 
class is not found, meaning that the link is invalid).

The second issue would be fixed by replacing "@param t      whether or 
not to include time in filename" by "@param xyztt      which axes to 
include in the filename" – the "@param" construct tries to explain a 
parameter, and there is no "t", but a yet unexplained "xyztt" parameter, 
as you can see here:

If that fixes things for you, it would be very nice if you could make a 
Pull Request as described here:
