Usage
Usage on Pitzer
Set-up
To configure your environment for use of AFNI, run the following command: module load afni. The default version will be loaded. To select a particular AFNI version, use module load afni/version. For example, use module load afni/2021.6.10 to load AFNI 2021.6.10.
AFNI is installed in a singularity container. AFNI_IMG environment variable contains the container image file path. So, an example usage would be
module load afni singularity exec $AFNI_IMG suma
This command will open the SUMA GUI environment, and we recommend Ondemand VDI or Desktop for GUI.
