[Mrtrix-discussion] filter_tracks: unknown option "-minlength"

[Robert Smith]

Hi Anna,

I would check the location of the filter_tracks binary being run (using the
which command) and the contents of the file cmd/filter_tracks.cpp. From
memory I distributed a version of filter_tracks on the mailing list before
it was included in the MRtrix package, so there's a chance that you've
compiled and are executing a version where that command-line option simply
wasn't implemented yet. If you are in fact running the correct binary, have
a look in the cmd/filter_tracks.cpp text file itself, and make sure that
"minlength" appears in the OPTIONS section.

If you do in fact have an older version, the most up-to-date file can be
found here<https://code.google.com/p/mrtrix/source/browse/trunk/cmd/filter_tracks.cpp>;
just replacing that one file and re-compiling should be adequate.

Otherwise, you can try cleaning and re-building the source (./build clean;
./build). If that still doesn't get it, could you send us the output of
running 'filter_tracks __print_full_usage__'.

Cheers
Rob
