Hi SPMers, I just downloaded and installed the latest SPM5 and VBM5 in this afternoon. I can use them normally with GUI. However, I want to do some batch things to save my time. I tried it and met some problems. I tried to run the example listed on the website only for testing. But it did not work. I run "cg_vbm_batch.sh /usr/local/spm5/canonical/single_subj_T1.nii -s /usr/local/spm5" I got such log file: ---------------------------------- Fri Jan 11 19:29:42 EST 2008 ---------------------------------- /usr/local/spm5/toolbox/vbm5/cg_vbm_batch.sh /usr/local/spm5/canonical/single_subj_T1.nii < M A T L A B > Copyright 1984-2007 The MathWorks, Inc.
