Thanks. Was obvious once you pointed it out. Scripting is always an on going education(read here: pain *laugh*) for us psychology types. But the more I read and understand this python script the more glad I am to be learning it now for future work.

However, for the sake of time on this fast approaching project can you confirm there is no -argument such as -regress_bandpass built into 3dDeconvolve since I have all that scripting already laid out and working.
----------------------------------


Returning to our afni_proc.py testing, I am running into this newer error:

** error: option -regress_stim_labels follows unknown arg #34 (/Volumes/Motion_Pre-moco/2H_s4+orig_vr_motion.1D[0])

Not sure why it is considering it a program arugment rather then a .1D file name. Let me know if anything in script below explains this.

Will afni_proc be able to utilize my external_censor file if it is a concatenation of all 6 sessions? Or do I need to feed it individual ones for each session.


foreach subj ( 2H )# 5U 6T 7U 8K 9S 10H 12N 13B 14K 15U 16Y 17M 18O )

cd ${subj}

foreach sess ( s4 s5 s6 s7 s8 s9 )

Thank you so much for your patience and help. No one in my lab has really taken up afni_proc so I am trouble shooting and testing all on my own. Your responses are really invaluable.
