I'm trying to apply an affine transform to some volumes. My standard approach to this is: applywarp -i invol.nii.gz -r invol.nii.gz -o outvol.nii.gz --interp=nn --premat=./somefile.mat But I'm getting a segfault with the error message "Could not open matrix file ./somefile.mat". The directory containing invol.nii.gz and somefile.mat happens to be a symlink, and the command works if I use this instead: --premat=`readlink -f ./somefile.mat` Is there some reason applywarp can't handle symlinks for mat files? I don't seem to need `readlink` for the .nii paths, only mat. FLIRT -applyxfm -init ./somefile.mat seems to handle all of these paths without problem. I've tried applywarp from several different FSL versions. Thanks! -Keith
