Is it possible to use the Segment Editor through the command line? I have \>2gb sized images and I know what are the options and parameters I would like to use from the application, it would be great to be able to run them non-interactively.

I was searching here [http://slicer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user\_guide/module\_segmenteditor.html](http://slicer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user_guide/module_segmenteditor.html) but did not find any information.

Thank you!
