pop_parsesmi.m

% pop_parsesmi() - parses text-converted (ASCII) SMI raw data and 
%       saves it in a Matlab structure. Will import messages and events, 
%       if detected. Builds table of events from trigger pulses sent during 
%       the experiment. If the user provides a keyword that marks special 
%       keyword-containing messages as synchronisation events, these 
%       messages will be used to build the event table instead.
%
% Usage:
%   >> ET = pop_parsesmi
%
% Inputs:
%           - no inputs allowed
% Outputs:
%   ET      - Eyetracker structure. Note: This gets deleted
%           immediately, when used via EEGLAB menu. You will only need the
%           mat-file location in the following pop_importeyetracker.
%
%   An example call of the function might look like this: 
%   >> ET = pop_parsesmi
