FSL Tips

If you have a Windows machine, you can install the Bitvise SSH tool. It will allow you to connect using either a terminal window or an Explorer-like window.

If you have a UNIX-based system and want to connect to FSL without using a password, follow the instructions here.

Where files should be stored:

  • Input data files = ~/fsl_groups/fslg_piccololab. Dr. Piccolo will place them in a subdirectory. Please do not make copies of these files.
  • Code, scripts, and test data files = Your home directory. Also commit these to a Git repository and push them to BitBucket or GitHub as you develop.
  • Output and temporary files = ~/fsl_groups/fslg_piccololab/compute. Create a subdirectory and store the files there.
