use of spm within fieldtrip

[jan-mathijs schoffelen]

Dear all,

I just made some changes to the fieldtrip code relating to the spm-
version used for spatial normalisation, segmentation and smoothing.
These changes affect the functions ft_volumesegment,
ft_volumenormalise and ft_volumedownsample. Up until now, fieldtrip
relied on spm2 to do the morphological operations on anatomical MRIs
(and actually crashed when trying to use spm8). I changed the default
spm-version to be used into spm8. This means that in order for this to
work you need spm8 on your matlab path. People who would prefer to
keep using spm2 for spatial normalisation and segmentation should
specify cfg.spmversion = 'spm2' before calling ft_volumenormalise or
ft_volumesegment.

Cheers,

Jan-Mathijs
