Oops -- I meant do the same with *labels*. Here is an excerpt from the
mris_convert usage:
Convert a surface file to ascii:
mris_convert lh.white lh.white.asc
Write vertex neighbors to ascii:
mris_convert -v lh.white lh.white.neighbors.asc
Convert a surface file to ascii (vertices are surface normals):
mris_convert -n lh.white lh.white.normals.asc
Apply talairach xfm to white surface, save as binary:
mris_convert -t bert lh.white lh.white.tal
Convert a scalar overlay file to ascii:
mris_convert -c lh.thickness lh.white lh.thickness.asc
Convert a .annot file to Gifti label file:
mris_convert --annot lh.aparc.annot lh.white lh.aparc.gii
Convert a Gifti label file to .annot:
mris_convert --annot lh.aparc.gii lh.white.gii lh.aparc.annot
Convert a Freesurfer .label file to Gifti label format:
mris_convert --label lh.V1.label V1 lh.white lh.V1.label.gii
Create a scalar overlay file where each parcellation region
contains a single value:
mris_convert --annot lh.aparc.annot --parcstats lh.parcstats.txt\
lh.white lh.parcstats
You want Gifti label.
