okay so bestie, welcome to spec2nii-raw — it lives in the User Commands section of the manual and it's literally here to convert from LCModel RAW data format. that's the whole gig. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

spec2nii raw – convert from LCModel RAW data format

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

spec2nii raw [-h] -n NUCLEUS [-i IMAGINGFREQ] [-b BANDWIDTH] [-a FILE]
[-j] [-f FILEOUT] [-o OUTDIR] [--nifti1]
[--override_nucleus OVERRIDE_NUCLEUS [OVERRIDE_NUCLEUS ...]]
[--override_frequency OVERRIDE_FREQUENCY [OVERRIDE_FREQUENCY ...]]
[--override_dwelltime OVERRIDE_DWELLTIME] [--anon] [--verbose] file

👑 OPTIONS 👑

🍓 POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS 🍓

• file — the file you wanna convert. that's it, that's the whole thing. hand it over. 🫶

🦋 OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS 🦋

• -h, --help — shows you a help message and then dips. classic.
• -n NUCLEUS, --nucleus NUCLEUS — the nucleus string. like 1H or 31P. yes you have to give this one, it's not optional, it's giving required main character energy. 👑
• -i IMAGINGFREQ, --imagingfreq IMAGINGFREQ — optional bestie. this is the imaging (central) frequency, measured in MHz.
• -b BANDWIDTH, --bandwidth BANDWIDTH — also optional. this is the receiver bandwidth (aka spectral width) in Hz.
• -a FILE, --affine FILE — a NIfTI affine file. yes, that kind of affine. 💅
• -j, --json — makes a json sidecar. little companion file, so cute. ✨
• -f FILEOUT, --fileout FILEOUT — the base name for your output file. default = the input file name, so if you don't say anything it just copies the vibe of whatever you fed it.
• -o OUTDIR, --outdir OUTDIR — where the output goes. default = . (which is literally just "right here", bestie).
• --nifti1 — okay so the original page gives this flag no description at all. not me making one up 💀 it's just there, living its truth. I'm not gonna invent behaviour that isn't written down.
• --override_nucleus OVERRIDE_NUCLEUS [OVERRIDE_NUCLEUS ...] — overrides the ResonantNucleus field with whatever input(s) you give it. e.g. 2H. you can pass more than one, go off. 🔥
• --override_frequency OVERRIDE_FREQUENCY [OVERRIDE_FREQUENCY ...] — overrides the SpectrometerFrequency field with your input(s). input is in MHz. multiple values? sure, go ahead. 🌈
• --override_dwelltime OVERRIDE_DWELLTIME — overrides the dwell time field with your input. input is in seconds. just the one value here, no little list situation.
• --anon — creates the file without sensitive metadata. 🙈 if you want greater control over the anonymisation, go use spec2nii-anon(1) instead.
• --verbose — again, the original gives this one no description, so no cap, I'm not adding one. it's there, it exists, that's the tea. 🍵

and that's the whole page, bestie!! this lil icon was dated April 2026 and it's signed off as SPEC2NII-RAW(1) in the User Commands section — so go forth, convert that RAW data, and slay. 💅✨🦋 periodt. 🎀
