AFNI(1)

NAME
afni - toolkit for analyzing and visualizing functional MRI data

DESCRIPTION
AFNI is an environment for processing and displaying functional MRI data. It provides a complete analysis toolchain, including 3D cortical surface models, and mapping of volumetric data (SUMA). AFNI can be configured using either a config file or via a large set of environment variables (see README.environment for more information). A default configuration for POSIX-compliant environments is available in /etc/afni/afni.sh. This is shell script that needs to be sourced. One way to do this automatically is to add a line containing

     . /etc/afni/afni.sh

to the .bashrc file in a users home directory (or a corresponding file for other shells than bash).

Questions regarding the usage of AFNI or related theory can be posted in the AFNI forum (see http://afni.nimh.nih.gov/afni/community/board).

ENVIRONMENT
This AFNI suite is built with OPENMP support, allowing some tools (e.g. 3dDespike) use multiple threads on a single box. By default it will run 1 thread per each available CPU core. OMP_NUM_THREADS environment variable can be used to explicitly specify number of threads to use.

See /usr/share/doc/afni-common/README.environment.gz for description of other environment variables used by AFNI.
