.fsf and .fts files are completely different.  .fsf stores lots of overall
design details and is not needed for randomise. -fts stores F-contrasts.

Contrasts are stored in the .con file.  Are you doing F-tests or t-tests?
 If just t-tests (ordinary contrasts) then you don't need the -f or -F
options

It might be worth reading parts of the FEAT manual to get a better feel for
design matrices

Cheers,

Eugene
