[FieldTrip] ft_redefinetrial and response correctness

[Raquel Bibi]

Hi Grazia,
In the past I ran into difficulty with my trial function when my triggers were strings. can you remove the ’S’ and change your triggers to numeric values? If not, perhaps I can try if you give me a snippet of data (although I am unfamiliar with .vmk), my old trial functions did what you need.  Alternatively, break down this process by using ft_read_event ( http://www.fieldtriptoolbox.org/reference/ft_read_event <http://www.fieldtriptoolbox.org/reference/ft_read_event>) and ft_read_header (http://www.fieldtriptoolbox.org/reference/ft_read_header <http://www.fieldtriptoolbox.org/reference/ft_read_header>).

Best,

Raquel
