/**\file datatype.cxx
This program reads a Cifti file from argv[1], and writes it out to argv[2] using 8-bit unsigned integer and data scaling.
It uses a single CiftiFile object to do this, for simplicity - to see how to do something similar with two objects,
which is more relevant for how you would do processing on cifti files, see rewrite.cxx.
