[FieldTrip] Bug in ft_megplanar? (Version 20121209)

Dear clme,

you try to compute planar gradiometer signals for a system which 
measures planar gradiometer signals. This is why fieldtrip tries to stop 
you from doing it.
So, instead of computing such signals you simply select the channels 
which have names according to this pattern: 'MEG...[23]'
Channel names ending with an 2 or 3 are planar gradiometer channels.

all the best,
Burkhard
