"""Tiny tool to prepare a directory for a typical analysis of fMRI data with
PyMVPA. Tools from the FSL suite will be used for preprocessing. It takes a 4D
fMRI timeseries as input and performs the following steps:

- extract an example volume

- perform motion correction using the example volume as reference

- conservative skull-stripping and brain mask generation

- masking of the motion-corrected timeseries with the brain mask

All results will be stored either in the current directory, or in a
subdirectory with the subject ID (if specified)."""
