[FieldTrip] electrode positions of 4D data

[Yuval Harpaz]

Dear Margit
with a previous version of fieldtrip I found that not only the location of
the electrodes was not in the data structure but also the EEG data. this is
when specifying channel = 'EEG'; giving it the channel labels solved it-
{'E1' E2' ... 'En'}; if I remember well the elec position was read then. if
worse comes to worst you can try reading the EEG location with msi >>
matlab<http://biomag.wikidot.com/msi-matlab>tool. I assume the
electrodes were digitized.
