understood. I agree patching brain2mesh and other related demo scripts
is a better solution than the symbolic link, however, iso2mesh has been
used by other widely distributed tools, like brainstorm, fieldtrip etc,
and I am afraid that dropping this link can lead to broken scripts
(unless all upstream codes are patched).

can we upload this temporary fix for now, and I will add a fall-back
mechanism (in mcpath.m
<https://github.com/fangq/iso2mesh/blob/master/mcpath.m>) in the next
release of iso2mesh? once that is added, I will remove the symbolic link.

let me know what you think. thanks
