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

04 Oct 2024, RC Reynolds, gen_group_command.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
    add -datatable 'command', to generate table for R stats programs

    Use gen_group_command.py -command datatable to generate datatable files
    for -dataTable options, for programs like 3dMVM, 3dLME, etc.


10 Sep 2024, P Taylor, gtkyd_check, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG)
    A *Python* version of previously-written tcsh script of same name.

    Much faster way of checking/tabulating a glob of datasets for properties.


24 May 2024, PD Lauren, suma, level 3 (MAJOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
    add alpha thresholding


29 Apr 2024, RC Reynolds, afni-general, level 3 (MAJOR), type 5 (MODIFY)
    change 'count' program and usage to 'count_afni'

    Add count_afni to the distribution, modify scripts to use it, and
    allow use of count_afni is sub-brick selection, e.g.,
        dset'[count_afni 3 5]'
    Note that 'count' is still allowed, for now.


29 Mar 2024, RC Reynolds, ap_run_simple_rest_me.tcsh, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG)
    run a quick afni_proc.py resting state analysis for QC on multi-echo data


18 Mar 2024, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 6 (ENHANCE)
    auto-include APQC_atlas for compute_tsnr_stats, if appropriate

    And add -regress_compute_auto_tsnr_stats.


15 Feb 2024, RC Reynolds, compute_ROI_stats.tcsh, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG)
    compute per-ROI region statstics over a given dataset

    It is a little like 3dROIstats, but with needs specific to afni_proc.py.


19 Feb 2023, RC Reynolds, build_afni.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG)
    compile AFNI

      - download from github
      - download AFNI atlases
      - compile
      - suggest rsync (will apply with some options, later)


06 Jan 2023, P Taylor, apqc_make_tcsh.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
    Add '-vstat_list' opt, so user can enter label bases for vstat in APQC.

    HTML still has up to 5 automatically chosen vols by def in vstat.


23 Dec 2022, RC Reynolds, init_user_dotfiles.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG)
    evaluate or initialize dot/RC files for running AFNI

    From the perspective of:
        i) adding a directory (ABIN?) to the PATH
       ii) sourcing the apsearch all_progs.COMP file (per shell)
      iii) (for macs) adding flat_namespace to DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
