[FieldTrip] time-frequeny analysis task vs resting

Lorena,
As far as I know, I don't think there is a way currently built into
FieldTrip to adjust all experimental trials by the same separate baseline
period, but it is something I also prefer to do, since my pre-trial
"baselines" change across conditioning in my behavioral paradigm.  I've
written a custom function to perform this on my data, and it is part of the
code I'm offering to share in the email I just sent out asking another
question that relates to baseline correction and other issues.  Are you
interested?
