The levels of importance go from 1 to 5, with meanings:
       1 - users would not care
       2 - of little importance, though some users might care
       3 - fairly important
       4 - a big change or new program
       5 - IMPORTANT: we expect users to know

24 Mar 2008, RW Cox, 3dTfitter, level 2 (MINOR), type 5 (MODIFY) deconvolution with penalty factor = 0 is modified Now the criterion for choosing the penalty factor is based on curvature rather than distance from the origin. Seems to be more robust, but probably will require yet more tweaking. 24 Mar 2008, RC Reynolds, Dimon, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) added GERT_Reco options (request of D Glen) -gert_filename : specify a name for the GERT_Reco script -gert_nz : override nz=1 in mosaic image files -gert_to3d_prefix : specify a dataset prefix for the to3d command 24 Mar 2008, RC Reynolds, @Align_Centers, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX) applied proper follower dataset orientation and floating point shifts The shift applied to the child datasets was based on the parent's orientation. The shifts were also being truncated to integers. Changed with D Glen.

For example, see options -o_gii and -xml* in ConvertSurface program. 05 Mar 2008, RW Cox, afni-general, level 2 (MINOR), type 5 (MODIFY) Change the way 1D datasets are written to disk from 3D programs In programs that analyze time series files (such as 3dTfitter), you can input 1D files and make the column direction be the time axis by using suffixing the file with \' -- but when it comes to writing the results dataset out, the standard AFNI I/O method is to write the time axis along the row direction. With this change, if you input a 1D file in the place of a 3D dataset AND put '.1D' at the end of the output file prefix, then the output dataset will be written so that the time axis is along the column direction. 05 Mar 2008, RW Cox, 3dTfitter, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) added '-fitts' option to produce fitted time series dataset 05 Mar 2008, RC Reynolds, GIFTI, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX) fixed passing of INDEX_LIST 05 Mar 2008, RC Reynolds, GIFTI, level 2 (MINOR), type 5 (MODIFY) do not duplicate data when reading and writing GIFTI from AFNI

28 Feb 2008, ZS Saad, suma-general, level 3 (MAJOR), type 3 (NEW_ENV) Support for GIFTI surface format reading 28 Feb 2008, RW Cox, 3dUndump, level 2 (MINOR), type 0 (GENERAL) allow input of NO text files, to produce an 'empty' dataset 28 Feb 2008, RW Cox, 3dTfitter, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) allow constraints on sign of deconvolved function 28 Feb 2008, RW Cox, 3dTfitter, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) allow combination of penalty functions in deconvolution 28 Feb 2008, RC Reynolds, afni_history, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) added -list_authors option and adjusted spacing
27 Feb 2008, ZS Saad, suma, level 3 (MAJOR), type 0 (GENERAL) Addition of p and q values under threshold bar Use BHelp on p and q text in suma to get more info. 27 Feb 2008, RW Cox, 3dTfitter, level 3 (MAJOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) add deconvolution via the '-FALTUNG' option Unlike 3dDeconvolve, this deconvolution is to find the input time series, given the impulse response function. 27 Feb 2008, RC Reynolds, afni_history, level 4 (SUPER), type 1 (NEW_PROG) program to display the history of AFNI updates This will be used to create a web page of AFNI updates. Please see 'afni_history -help' for more details. 27 Feb 2008, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX) fixed -regress_use_stim_files typo (was -regress_use_stim_times)
25 Feb 2008, RW Cox, 1dsvd, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) add '-vmean' and '-vnorm' options, to mirror capabilities in 3dpc 25 Feb 2008, RC Reynolds, plug_vol2surf, level 3 (MAJOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX) fixed application of cluster for sending data to suma Previously, clustering was only applied when the Olay and Thr sub-bricks were the same.
24 Feb 2008, RC Reynolds, GIFTI, level 2 (MINOR), type 5 (MODIFY) GIFTI library now considers MetaData without Value as valid
22 Feb 2008, RW Cox, 3dpc, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) add '-eigonly' and '-reduce' options; output eigenvalues to a 1D file '-eigonly' causes 3dpc to print eigenvalues to stdout and stop there. '-reduce n pp' outputs a reduced dataset, using only the largest 'n' eigenvalues.
21 Feb 2008, RC Reynolds, GIFTI, level 4 (SUPER), type 0 (GENERAL) AFNI programs can now read and write GIFTI datasets GIFTI datasets are for data in the surface domain, with file suffix .gii.

20 Feb 2008, RW Cox, 1deval, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) add '-1D:' option, to write output that is usable on the command line Sample usage: 1dplot `1deval -1D: -num 71 -expr 'cos(t/2)*exp(-t/19)'` The backquotes `...` capture command's output and put this string on the command line. The '-1D:' option formats the 1deval output so that it is ready to be used in this way.
16 Feb 2008, RW Cox, 3dTfitter, level 4 (SUPER), type 1 (NEW_PROG) new program = linear fits to voxel time series Uses L1 or L2 regression, with optional constraints to fit each voxel time series as a sum of basis time series, which can be 1D files or 3D+time datasets. Basis time series that are 1D time series are the same for all input voxels. Basis time series that are 3D+time datasets are different for each voxel. Differences from 3dDeconvolve: * Basis time series can vary across voxels. * Fit coefficients can be found with L1 or L2 error functions, and can be constrained to be positive or negative. * 3dTfitter does not compute goodness-of-fit statistics.
14 Feb 2008, ZS Saad, suma, level 3 (MAJOR), type 0 (GENERAL) Graphing of dset content with 'g' A graph of the column content at a node can be plotted This would be the surface equivalent to AFNI's graphing function. See suma's interactive help 'ctrl+h' for more info.

20 Dec 2007, RW Cox, Miscellaneous, level 3 (MAJOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) Older History stuff * Clusterize reporting window.
19 Dec 2007, ZS Saad, suma-general, level 3 (MAJOR), type 0 (GENERAL) Use of '[i]' to select node index from surface dset Square bracket '[]' selection works for surface-based datasets much like it does for volume-based ones. In addition, one can use '[i]' to select the indices of nodes for which data are defined in a particular surface-based dataset. For more information, see 'SUMA dataset input options:' section in the output of ConvertDset -help .
18 Dec 2007, ZS Saad, ROIgrow, level 2 (MINOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) Grows regions separately, depending on labels 18 Dec 2007, ZS Saad, ROI2dataset, level 2 (MINOR), type 0 (GENERAL) Output full datasets if needed
17 Dec 2007, ZS Saad, ConvertDset, level 2 (MINOR), type 0 (GENERAL) Output of full dsets if needed This can be used to force a dataset with data defined on a few nodes to be written out with a complete list of nodes, using 0 where no data are defined.
06 Dec 2007, RW Cox, Miscellaneous, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) Older History stuff * Add -jpg and -png options to 1dplot.c. * Add thick line drawing to mri_coxplot.c (by repeated thin line drawing).

20 Nov 2007, RW Cox, 3dTsort, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) new program = sorts voxel data along the time axis This might be useful for sorting the -stim_time_IM beta weights output be 3dDeconvolve. Perhaps for something else, too? 20 Nov 2007, RW Cox, Miscellaneous, level 2 (MINOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) Older History stuff * Copy auxdata from source to output in 3dAllineate.c (oops). * Changed 'report' from mri_clusterize.c and added info to the clusterize vector chooser using about BHelp to see this report. * New program 3dTsort.c. Will this grow to be a monster?
19 Nov 2007, ZS Saad, Surf2VolCoord, level 2 (MINOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) Program to show surface-node to voxel correspondence This can be used to understand how surface coordinates relate to voxel coordinates.
16 Nov 2007, RW Cox, Miscellaneous, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) Older History stuff * Added -global_times, -local_times, and -guess_times to 3dDeconvolve.c * For ragged 1D input files, arbitrary text starting with alphabetic character is same as '*' for filler. * AFNI_RESCAN_AT_SWITCH is on by default now. * 1dplot takes a 1 row file and flips it to a column for plotting; however , when 2 single row files were input, they'd be catenated and THEN flipped, producing erroneous joined plot. Now, they are flipped THEN catenated, which does the right thing. * Speaking of 1dplot, '-nopush' now works for multiple graphs, rather than just for '-one'. * Modify AlphaSim.c so that rmm defaults to -1 ==> nearest neighbors, and so that '-seed 0' generates a custom seed. * Add some extra text to the 'Clusterize' label (afni_setup.c) to explain that rmm=0 means NN clustering with vmul in voxel count.
15 Nov 2007, RW Cox, Miscellaneous, level 2 (MINOR), type 0 (GENERAL) Older History stuff * Changes to interactive AFNI to save '1D:' ref and ort files in the header of interactive fim files; example 1dplot '`3dAttribute -ssep ' ' AFNI_FIM_REF r1_time@1+orig`' * Changes to mri_read_1D() to allow arbitrarily long filenames. * New function mri_to1Dstring(), to create '1D:' strings from MRI_IMAGEs.

11 Oct 2007, RW Cox, Miscellaneous, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) Older History stuff * Modify edt_filtervol.c to clip off voxels outside the fmask. * Modify 3dmerge.c to add -1fm_noclip and -1filter_blur options.
10 Oct 2007, RW Cox, Miscellaneous, level 2 (MINOR), type 0 (GENERAL) Older History stuff * Changes to 3dDeconvolve.c to check -stim_label values: for un-assigned values, and for duplicate values. * Change a few programs to check EQUIV_GRIDS() as well as voxel counts, when combining multiple datasets (3dTcat, etc). * Modify plug_nth_dataset.c to use different set of default overlay colors . Modify afni_plugin.[ch] to allow this. * Modify afni_graph.c to make 'Transform 1D' menu re-activate a button eve n if it is already the activated one. Goal: popup Dataset#N plugin controls more easily. * Modify 3dttest.c to add the -sdn1 option (for Tom Johnstone).
