NAME

       mincmakevector  -  convert  a list of scalar minc files into one vector
       file

SYNOPSIS

       mincmakevector [<options>] <in>.mnc [...] <out>.mnc

DESCRIPTION

       Mincmakevector converts a list of scalar minc  files  into  one  vector
       minc  file.  A  vector  minc  file  is  one that contains the dimension
       vector_dimension as the fastest varying dimension of the image data and
       represents  vector  data  at  each voxel such as RGB images or gradient
       volumes. A scalar minc file does not contain the vector  dimension  and
       represents grayscale or intensity data.

OPTIONS

       Note that options can be specified in abbreviated form (as long as they
       are unique) and can be given anywhere on the command line.

General options

       -2     Create a MINC 2.0 format output file.

       -clobber
              Overwrite an existing file.

       -noclobber
              Don’t overwrite an existing file (default).

       -no_clobber
              Synonym for -noclobber.

       -verbose
              Print out progress information for each  chunk  of  data  copied
              (default).

       -quiet Do not print out progress information.

       -buffer_size size
              Specify  the  maximum  size of the internal buffers (in kbytes).
              Default is 10 MB.

       -filetype
              Create an output file with the same type as the first input file
              (default).

       -byte  Store output voxels as 8-bit integers.

       -short Store output voxels as 16-bit integers.

       -int   Store output voxels as 32-bit integers

       -long  Superseded by -int.

       -float Store output voxels as 32-bit floating point numbers.

       -double
              Store output voxels as 64-bit floating point numbers.

       -signed
              Create  an  output  file with data stored in a signed type. This
              only has an effect if the one  of  the  -byte,  -short  or  -int
              options is specified.

       -unsigned
              Create an output file with data stored in an unsigned type. This
              only has an effect if the one  of  the  -byte,  -short  or  -int
              options is specified.

       -valid_range min max
              Create  an output file with integer data stored in the specified
              restricted range.  This only has an effect if  the  one  of  the
              -byte, -short or -int options is specified.

Generic options for all commands:

       -help  Print summary of command-line options and exit.

       -version
              Print the program’s version number and exit.

EXAMPLES

       To  convert files containing red, green and blue colour components into
       an RGB file:

          mincmakevector red.mnc green.mnc blue.mnc rgb.mnc
