-RM-216-MR-Nifti-IO name clashes: .nii vs. nii.gz
When loading a .nii.gz file, the loader may instead load a .nii file with the same name, if one exists in the same directory. This might be a "feature" of the nifti lib. Other tools (e.g. FSL) will not load data if multiple files with the same basename exist, maybe for this reason.
Tested on up-to-date Debian unstable. Can anyone confirm this problem on another OS?
HowTo:
- create different datasets test.nii and test.nii.gz
- try to load test.nii.gz
- check if it loaded test.nii instead
