Re: [Freesurfer] Qdec: Can't find a usable init.tcl

Hello Rosa,
The qdec program is deprecated in 7.X releases and is no longer maintained.
In the 7.X releases, you can try using freeview for images and from the command 
line there are the mri* commands (mris_surf2surf, mri_glmfit, mri_glmfit-sim, 
etc.) for stream processing.
If you still need to run qdec in the Freesurfer 6 distribution, then you could 
ask your IT department to create a virtual machine or container to host an 
older copy of your linux OS that supports the correct version of tcl/tk for 
Freesurfer 6.X and install the Freesurfer 6 distribution in it.  Linux 
has quemu for built in virtualization which you may already have installed on 
your server(s). There is also docker for containers and VirtualBox for 
virtual machines which likewise can run an older version of an OS and run 
Freesurfer 6 in those. Your IT group may support docker and/or VirtualBox 
as well.

is 7.1.0 and when I tried to open Qdec the following message appears: Can't

TCL 8.6.11 available."Is there anyway we can install Qdec for this new version

open to any other possible solutions.Kind

[Freesurfer] Qdec: Can't find a usable init.tcl

Dear FreeSurfer Developers,

I'm attempting to open Qdec on my linux server. I used to open it with 
freesurfer 6.0.0 activated to analyze our local gyrification index data. That 
version is not available anymore in our service; hence, the Freesurfer version 
I can use is 7.1.0 and when I tried to open Qdec the following message appears: 
Can't find a usable init.tcl 

We tried to contact our IT sever to see if there was a way we could use our old 
Freesurfer version 6.0.0 (which we used to calculate the LGI). But they replied 
to us with the following:

"A G6 compute server must be used for freesurfer 6.0.0. The background is that 
the TCL 8.4.6 used by Freesurfer is very old (from 2008) and is no longer 
supported by current operating systems. The same applies to the latest version 
7.2.0.
We have TCL 8.6.11 available."

Is there anyway we can install Qdec for this new version of freesurfer 7.1.0? 
so we are able to continue with the analysis. 

I am open to any other possible solutions.

Kind regards,

Rosa
