If you want to automate the installation of plugin on the user's eclipse then you can do some by a running a simple copy command from your scripts which copies the features and plugins into the User's eclipse features and plugins directory respectively
OR alternatively you can create a link file in the links directory (if links directory is not present then you need to create it) of User's eclipse installation and give the path of your update site directory in the link file.

and if you are installing from an update site you can use the p2 director which is basically a command line applicaiton through which you can automate the installation
you can see here http://help.eclipse.org/juno/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.isv%2Fguide%2Fp2_director.html&cp=2_0_20_2 how it is done
