[Eeglablist] How can I epoch events followed by correct response only?

[Makoto Miyakoshi]

Dear Rafal,

Check whether your event markers are string or numeric... Mikolaj's code
assumes they are string, but I know users often have numeric event markers.

By the way Mikolaj's code is wonderful as always.
