Russ,

Hi, I'm wondering if you could provide more details on the failure that
you encountered.  Did an MNI utility, such as nu_correct, fail to run and
complain about not finding MNI/Startup ?  This is a typical failure if
perl cannot find the MNI perl files.

Do you get the failure even after executing the statement:

source /Users/Shared/freesurfer/SetUpFreeSurfer.csh

This script will setup PERL5LIB to point to the MNI tools, which should
enable them to work.

We are in the midst of preparing a new official release of Freesurfer to
be released in about two weeks, and so your input is appreciated.  The Mac
Tiger version available now was prepared for a recent Freesurfer course,
and could use some improvements in terms of making it a bullet-proof
install on the Mac.  I will consider moving the MNI toolkit to
/System/Library/Perl/5.8.6 so as it does not require having to source the
SetUpFreeSurfer.csh file to setup a special PERL5LIB path.  Also, the
current install path (/Users/Shared/freesurfer) is likely to change to
something more reasonable.

Do you have any other suggestions or comments?

Thanks,

Nick
