(Sorry -- inadvertently hit a key that triggered the "send" function. Here's the final version of the previous message:)
and I'm trying to understand part of the -autorecon2 section, and in particular,
1)
how the lh.orig.nofix file that is produced by the end of the
-tessellate subsection is different from the the lh.white file that is
produced by the -white subsection, and
2) how the area and curvature files produced by the command mris_smooth lh.orig.nofix lh.smoothwm.nofix would differ those produced by the -white subsection.
