[caret-users] CoCoMac as a surface overlay data type

[John Harwell]

Alon,

As far as I know, there is no documentation on using Caret with  
CoCoMac.  I found a CoCoMac dataset that was used for testing when  
Caret was updated to read CoCoMac files.  The dataset is named  
"cocomac.zip" and is located in "http://brainmap.wustl.edu/pub/ 
john/".  You will need to use the username "pub" and the password  
"download" to access the website.

To view the cocomac data:

* Turn on the borders to see the boundaries of the functional areas
* Set the primary overlay to CoCoMac
* Go to the CoCoMac page on the Display Control and set its Paint  
Column to Functional
* Click a location on the surface.  The functional area that is  
clicked is shown in red and connected areas are shown in green.
* "View Connection" selections on the Display Control's CoCoMac page  
control the selection of afferent and/or efferent connections.
