function saveNEVTetrodes(NEVFullFilename)

% saveNEVTetrodes
% 
% Opens saves a new NEV file and splits it into smaller NEV files
% containing only the tetrodes according to the associated CCF file. The
% CCF file should have the same name as the data file.
%
% NEVFullFilename:  The full path to the NEV to be opened.
%                   DEFAULT: If the filename is not provided, the user will
%                   be prompted to select a file.
%
% Use saveNEVTetrodes(NEVFullFilename)
%
%   Example: saveNEVTetrodes('c:\datafolder\datafile.nev');
%
%   The function will open datafile.nev and datafile.ccf and based on the
%   tetrode information saved in datafile.ccf, it will split datafile.nev
%   into smaller chunks that will only contain channels associated to that
%   particular tetrode.
