<p>Dear SimNIBS list</p>
<p>Thank you for a great tool.</p>
<p>I looked through the archive and couldn't find an answer for my
question. I have used your headreco algorithm, and I created
impressive looking renderings of the head and the brain of a
subject. These are in the stl.format, and I was wondering
whether there's a way to convert it to the .surf format found in
FreeSurfer?</p>
<p>Specifically, I need this to specify the boundaries between
layers when specifying the BEM-model in MNE-Python.</p>
<p>All the best wishes</p>
