[MINC-users] EMMA tools for Cygwin

[Paul GRAVEL]

Hi All!

I think I got it!

Line 87 of niak_read_hdr_minc.m was modified from:
[flag,str_header] = system(cat(2,'mincheader.exe ',file_name));

to:

[flag,str_header] = system(cat(2,'bash -c "mincheader ',file_name,'"'));

so it ensures calling the mincheader command using cygwin's bash, instead 
of windows.

Many thanks again!

Paul
