[VoxBo] filtering .tes files

[Charan Ranganath]

Sorry Dan, what I meant is that the voxel surfer and VBview can spit out 
  a filtered, adjusted time series from an individual voxel. What I 
wanted was to create a new .tes file with the filtered and adjusted 
timeseries from each voxel. Can you do that with vbmakeresid? C
