Hi Celine - In an individual pathstats.byvoxel.txt file, the (x,y,z) 
coordinates are given for every point along the tract, so you can 
calculate the distance between consecutive points.

If you use "trac-all -stat" to put stats together across multiple 
subjects, then in the *.log files generated for each tract under the 
stats/ directory, you'll find a line like:
        INFO: Sampling interval along path is [...]

Best,
a.y
