Can you provide the output of the first few lines of your text file? PyMVPA seems to think there are either 2 or 3 columns (with meaning (1), separated by some separator string) _______________________________________________ Pkg-ExpPsy-PyMVPA mailing list Pkg-ExpPsy-PyMVPA@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-exppsy-pymvpa
