Hello FreeSurfer experts,

I recently downloaded and installed FreeSurfer on my Mac computer, but I have a few questions about the startup.

1. When I run FreeSurfer, I get the following.  I know the Wiki says to ignore the warning, and FreeSurfer does run normally after this, but I wanted to be sure it really was not a problem.

[SiriasBook:/] csirias% setenv FREESURFER_HOME Applications/freesurfer/
[SiriasBook:/] csirias% source Applications/freesurfer/SetUpFreeSurfer.csh

WARNING: The /Users/csirias/matlab/startup.m file does not appear to be

fshome = getenv('FREESURFER_HOME');
fsmatlab = sprintf('%s/matlab',fshome);
if (exist(fsmatlab) == 7)
    path(path,fsmatlab);
end
clear fshome fsmatlab;
fsfasthome = getenv('FSFAST_HOME');
fsfasttoolbox = sprintf('%s/toolbox',fsfasthome);

    path(path,fsfasttoolbox);
end
clear fsfasthome fsfasttoolbox;

2. When I type in 'freeview' to the command line, I get several other messages as the program opens.  I am not sure if they are a problem, but here they are. I seem to be able to run freeview despite these messages, but some others have told me that these messages do not appear on their computers, so I am wondering why they appear.

3. And my last question. How do I run FreeSurfer automatically when I open the terminal window? I would like to just type 'freeview' into the command line to have the program run, but I currently have to type 

setenv FREESURFER_HOME Applications/freesurfer/

followed by 

source Applications/freesurfer/SetUpFreeSurfer.csh

in order for the program to run.

Thank you so much for any help you can give!  Like I said, the program appears to run normally despite the messages, but I just want to know why they are appearing. The last question is more of a convenience issue.

Thanks,
David
