[Insight-users] Question on Examples

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Mishali,


Thanks for the clarification.

Since you are interested on the Image Registration examples,

please note that most of them will print a "Usage: " help
when you run them with not command line arguments.


Alternatively, you could look at the example source code

      [   That's the beauty of Open Source :-)   ]

and look for the places where we use "argv".



          Enlightenment should follow...




   Please let us know if you have any questions,


      Thanks


         Luis
