Hi Darko, try commenting out the last two lines and rerunning freeview (it’s possible that the error message getting inserted into your PATH is the source of these issues): # export PATH="$HOME/.linuxbrew/bin:$PATH" # export PATH="$(brew --prefix)/bin:$PATH"

I renamed the original fine, so it is now called just tcl_setup, and here is the output I got after typing "freeview" /home/lisak/miniconda3/bin:/home/lisak/Desktop/freesurfer/bin:/home/lisak/Desktop/freesurfer/fsfast/bin:/home/lisak/Desktop/freesurfer/tktools:/home/lisak/Desktop/fsl/bin:/home/lisak/Desktop/freesurfer/mni/bin:/home/lisak/Desktop/fsl/bin:E: Linuxbrew directory detected, but it seems to be broken.

So this looks pretty much like the error I got when using Human Connectome Project pipelines (to answer your earlier question, the only time I got this error before was while running FreeSurferPipelineBatch.sh in HCP pipelines, specifically after the start of FreeSurferHighResWhite script). I don't use FreeSurfer for anything else on this computer, since this is the special 5.3-HCP version, and I use FS6 on a different computer. Also, the Unmatched quote error does not appear when running FSL or other programs. (Not sure if you're familiar with HCP pipelines, but they are used (among other things) to estimate cortical myelin content, and have 3 main preprocessing pipelines, PreeFS one, FS one, and PostFS one - I got the Unmatched ". error in the FS one. When writing to their mailing list, I was told that it seems like an error unique to my computer, and they have not encountered it before.) Anyway, the Linuxbrew error appears again now after trying to start freeview. I searched for bashrc on my computer and I got two locations, one in perl subfolder, and one in miniconda3 subfolder. The latter just has 2 lines, so it's probably not the one you meant. The former is quite a long file, but does not mention linuxbrew at any point. I am sending the file attached. I would be really very grateful if you would try helping out with this. I have been googling this error, but was not able to find anything. Thanks a bunch!

Your modification to tcl_setup actually renders your PATH completely unusable. The quote syntax in the setup scripts shouldn’t cause any problems, and your unmatched errors indicate a more low-level issue that should probably get fixed directly. Are you only getting these unmatched errors with freesurfer tools? I can try to help you solve this, but I’m not quite sure I understand the initial problem.

Also sending attached the tcf_setup files. I guess now I know a bit more about what happened. I was running the Human Connectome Project pipelines, and had an error that included an unmatched quote. It turned out that, for some reason, my computer had an issue with single quotes in some setup files, including a tcf_setup file. For that reason, we changed the single to double quotes and that error went away. (If you're interested in more details, one of the commands performed in the FreeSurferPipeline was the tkregister2 command. After trying to run this command in isolation (having previously defined $mridir variable in the terminal), we finally got the same Unmatched ". error that we got initially, by running the entire pipeline. Playing with double and single quotes in that line did not do anything, and it seemed that the error arises instantaneously, without FreeSurfer having the time to even try anything. so we opened the tkregister2 file in desktop/freesurfer/bin folder. This file seemed to refer to a tcl_setup file within the same subfolder. So, we opened that one, and replaced all double quotes with single quotes, in accordance with this forum post: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10761838/getting-unmatched-on-a-simple-csh-ssh-script Even though csh is not my default shell, I think it is still being used by some processes. (Not sure if that makes any sense, I am a beginner when it comes to using Linux.) Running the tkregister2 command then in the terminal did not return Unmatched ". error, and the Pipeline was able to be completed.) The tcf_setup file in the attachment is the file we edited, whereas the tcl_setup_backup is the original file. Would you then recommend renaming the old file to tcl_setup? That would mean then renaming them back and forth, depending on the step we are doing in the analysis, but I guess it's doable.

There is something odd going on with your PATH after sourcing the TCL package. Can you send me your tcl_setup file in $FREESURFER_HOME/bin?
