[Eeglablist] Importing EGI RAW - EEGLAB out of memory error

Dear Peter,

No reconfiguring required. More RAM should be OK. What is the rename  
error? I suggest you contact Joseph Dien who seems to be motivated to  
improve the FILE-IO and EEGLAB interface and also implement memory  
mapping for EGI data files.
