OK Thanks. But a couple of clarification questions:
1) I take it that running mri_fill and then running inflate_subject-?h is equivalent to running inflate_subject? 2) The "tesselation" component of Create Surface does not need to be rerun separately? 3) wanted to mention that p. 53 of the Tutorial describes using inflate_subject-?h without mentioning mri_fill.
