Several programs are in fact available: two software (BrainVISA and Anatomist), along with command lines from the Aims and Vip libraries. All the programs are independent of each other. They are in the bin subfolder of the binary package.
To use BrainVISA, run the brainvisa.bat file by double clicking it via either a shortcut on the desktop or the bin folder.
Refer to this appendix to see the brainvisa command options, or enter one of the following command lines:
brainvisa -hor
brainvisa --help
The Anatomist application is independent of BrainVISA. You can run Anatomist without running BrainVISA. Anatomist will be described in another handbook.
To use Anatomist, run the anatomist.bat file by double clicking it via either a shortcut on the desktop or the bin folder.
You can also launch Aims*.exe, Vip*.exe and si*.exe command lines, such as AimsFileInfo, independently of BrainVISA and Anatomist. To get information on a command, enter:
command_name -hYou will find all the commands in the bin sub-directory or on the Web page: http://brainvisa.info/doc/html/shfjcommands/commands.html.
To use this commands, you must first initiate environment variables. Then, you could use commands from anywhere. Note this configuration is only valid for a DOS terminal.
Two ways are used to initiate environment variables either to launch any command from bin sub-directory or to launch the cartopack.bat script.
For instance, to use AimsFileInfo command via DOS terminal, follow the instrucions below:
Initiate a DOS terminal via the Program -> Invite DOS menu or the Program -> Accessories -> Invite DOS menu.
Locate in bin sub-directory of cartopack-main-win32-version package. You can use cd command to move of directory and dir command to list the files of directory:
cd C:\cartopack-main-win32-version\binTO initiate enviroment variables, either you can launch a command such as :
AimsFileInfo -i D:\data\image.ima
or you can use a specific script:
cartopack.bat
Now all commands are accessible from any directory. For instance, you can run anatomist.bat,brainvisa.bat, AimsFileInfo.bat -h .... with this terminal.
