[MINC-users] Once again: how to use insect properly?

[Ed Gronenschild]

Hi Jason,

I have done like you proposed and got a correct classification,
or better, CSF was labeled differently from the background.
However, I noticed that the classification in general was different
from that without the option -clean_tags. So two questions remain:
1. which option should I use?
2. how to implement the option -clean_tags in the insect Perl
	script? Should I do this myself or do you have a proposal?

Cheers,

Ed
