For a quick introduction to CIFTI, see FAQ #1:

https://wiki.humanconnectome.org/display/PublicData/HCP+Users+FAQ

You may also want to read wb_command -cifti-help, while some of it is
redundant with the FAQ, it also explains things you need to know about when
using cifti commands in wb_command:

https://www.humanconnectome.org/software/workbench-command/-cifti-help

You can in fact convert a cifti file into a hacky gifti format (by breaking
the one-structure rule) if doing so is necessary to get the data into the
software you want to use, with wb_command -cifti-convert.
