AFNI HISTORY

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

  ----  log of AFNI updates (most recent first)  ----

18 Aug 2025, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
    add -volreg_warp_master_box

    This is like -volreg_warp_master, but dxyz will come from EPI.
    If -volreg_warp_dxyz is given, _master is the same as _master_box.


15 Aug 2025, RC Reynolds, build_afni.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
    add -fast_log_commands and -fast_log_messages

15 Aug 2025, RC Reynolds, @compute_OC_weights, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
    add -prefix_combine, to combine the echoes using computed weights

    Added for P Molfese.


06 Aug 2025, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 6 (ENHANCE)
    add basic GTKYD (getting to know your data) and outlier check

    This will grow, including with user control.


29 Jul 2025, RC Reynolds, timing_tool.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
    add option -force_write_type, to force output of simple, AM, DM or AM/DM


25 Jul 2025, RC Reynolds, afni-general, level 2 (MINOR), type 5 (MODIFY)
    gcc-15 : code updates under the SUMA tree

    This hopefully finalizes the June 12, 2025 update, including SUMA.


03 Jul 2025, RC Reynolds, afni-general, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX)
    fix test of atr_flt2 when setting TAXIS_FLOATS

    Thanks to C Rorden for noting the problem.


12 Jun 2025, RC Reynolds, afni-general, level 2 (MINOR), type 6 (ENHANCE)
    gcc-15 : code updates for building

    This is a partial update for building using gcc-15.
    The main change is that gcc-15 defaults to -std=gnu23 instead of
      -std=gnu17.  The main change between those standards being that
      empty function parameter lists are now taken as (void), so use of
      generic function pointers now needs casting to avoid errors of
      -Wincompatible-pointer-types.  Similarly, some K&R parameter styles
      must be updated to ANSI.
    This affects 135 files so far, and the SUMA tree is still to be done.


05 Jun 2025, RC Reynolds, APMULTI_Demo2_realtime, level 2 (MINOR), type 6 (ENHANCE)
    add rt.22.py2py, to generally test client to server communication

    Added for S Fede.


21 May 2025, PD Lauren, suma, level 3 (MAJOR), type 5 (MODIFY)
    Made alpha variable opacity apply to all surfaces


21 Apr 2025, RC Reynolds, find_variance_lines.tcsh, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
    add -ignore_edges, to help avoid reporting motion-based variance lines


12 Apr 2025, RC Reynolds, model_conv_PRF_DN, level 2 (MINOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG)
    add Divisive Normalization population receptive field model

    Requested by E Merriam.


03 Apr 2025, RC Reynolds, APMULTI_Demo2_realtime, level 2 (MINOR), type 6 (ENHANCE)
    add rt.21.py2rr example, send mot and ROI aves 2 rr via python

    Demonstrate the basics of sending motion parameters and ROI averages
    to realtime_receiver.py.


29 Mar 2025, RC Reynolds, Dimon, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX)
    add -sort_method geme_rin back in

    This method is like geme_index, but uses RIN for the initial sort.
    Thanks to Shruti for reminding of its usefulness.


28 Mar 2025, RC Reynolds, APMULTI_Demo2_realtime, level 2 (MINOR), type 6 (ENHANCE)
    add rt.20.python example, data 2 afni -rt via python

    Demonstrate the basics of sending data to 'afni -rt'.


24 Mar 2025, RC Reynolds, Dimon, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
    add -sort_method echo_rin

    This works well if RIN repeats per volume and echo, and echo is set.
    geme_rin was temporarily removed, but that angered the mighty Shruti.


21 Mar 2025, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
    add combine methods OC_m_tedort and m_tedana_OC_tedort

    These are additional methods using the MEICA group tedana.  They both
    extract the tedort regressors (reject, but with accept projected out),
    using OC data and passing the tedort regressors to the final regression.


20 Mar 2025, RC Reynolds, 1d_tool.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
    add option -select_cols_via_TSV_table

    This was intended for processing tedana output.  Given a TSV component
    file as -input, the new option allows one to select accepted or rejected
    components via the metrics.tsv table.


17 Mar 2025, RC Reynolds, build_afni.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX)
    if -git_branch is non-master, do not apply default tag


12 Mar 2025, PD Lauren, suma, level 3 (MAJOR), type 5 (MODIFY)
    make |T|, 'sym I' and 'shw 0' apply to all surfaces


11 Mar 2025, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 5 (MODIFY)
    update examples class 3,5 per AD6; NL_warped_dsets requires e2a


07 Mar 2025, RC Reynolds, InstaTract, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX)
    add forgotten Wait_Till_Stream_Goes_Bad function (was using SUMA_)


06 Mar 2025, RC Reynolds, afni-general, level 2 (MINOR), type 6 (ENHANCE)
    jpeg-6b/configure: save more details


27 Feb 2025, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 6 (ENHANCE)
    add options -show_merged_opts and -compare_merged_opts


24 Feb 2025, RC Reynolds, gen_ss_review_scripts.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX)
    no masking for max F on surface

24 Feb 2025, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX)
    avoid potential sub prefix when getting spec files

    Thanks to jmj0309 on MB for noting the issue.

24 Feb 2025, RC Reynolds, afni-general, level 2 (MINOR), type 6 (ENHANCE)
    update Makefile.linux_ubuntu* (16,24,24_ARM) to distribute libgsl
