External Email - Use Caution        

Please keep in mind that the system python installed on both CentOS6 and 
CentOS7 (/usr/bin/python) is python 2.X, so scripts aren’t expecting to run a 
version 3 via the “python” interpreter found in a standard system PATH. 
 As far as I know only 1 python interpreter can be returned thru PATH 
(whichever python it finds first according to the order of the entries in 
PATH). 
But you can alias python to be something different in your shell, e.g., here 
using csh,

% alias python python3… or alias to whatever python rev 3 you want to run.
If your PATH is set to return system 2.X version, e.g., /usr/bin/python., then 
any script like slicedeleay should still find /usr/bin/python thru PATH.  
But typing python at the terminal will run whatever the alias points to. 
 The which command will show you this (CentOS7),
% which python/usr/bin/python% python --versionPython 2.7.5% alias python 
python3% python  --versionPython 3..6.8% which pythonpython:   
 aliased to python3% /usr/local/freesurfer/dev/bin/slicedelay --helpUSAGE:

7.1         External Email - Use 
Caution        Hello Noam, The 
python script /usr/local/freesurfer/dev/bin/slicedelay needs to be run 
with a version of python that is 2.X, i.e., $ file 
/usr/local/freesurfer/dev/bin/slicedelay/usr/local/freesurfer/dev/bin/slicedelay:
 Python script, ASCII text executable$ which python2/bin/python2$ python2 
/usr/local/freesurfer/dev/bin/slicedelay --helpUSAGE: slicedelay 
--help  --o slicedelayfile  --nslices nslices : total 
number of slices in the volume  --order order 
(up,down,odd,even,siemens)  --ngroups ngroups (number of slice groups 
for SMS) Creates an FSL custom slice delay file for use with slicetimer 
(--tcustom=sdfile).It has a single column of values, one for each slice. Each 
value is the slice delaymeasured as a fraction of the TR and range from +0.5 
(beginning of the TR) to -0.5 (end of the TR). Used for slice-time 
correction of fMRI. $ which 
python3/space/freesurfer/python/linux/bin/python3$ python3 
/usr/local/freesurfer/dev/bin/slicedelay --help  File 
"/usr/local/freesurfer/dev/bin/slicedelay", line 9    print 
"USAGE: slicedelay --help";             
                    
  ^SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'. Did you mean 
print("USAGE: slicedelay --help")?So I think that means that for you,$ which 
python- is going to return a python from your PATH such that typing the command 
“python —version” will report it is rev 3.X and not 2.X. You can try 
setting the PATH environment variable such that the first python program found 
in PATH reports it is version 2.X. - R.On Oct 29, 2020, at 20:47, Peled,
