Hi there,

I'm new to Hugin and would like to have a greater understanding of the internals.  The tutorials on the site give a good high-level overview of Hugin as a whole, but I couldn't find something that explained it at a slightly lower level.  Specifically what I'm interested in is a sort of step-by-step of how the tools listed here are used - what feeds into what, in what order, etc.

Does such documentation exist?

Thanks,
-Spencer

It probably does, somewhere.
If it's any help, here is a small script file I have used to stitch
scanned images.
It shows some of the what feeds into what, but by no means all.

Have you seen this
<http://wiki.panotools.org/Panorama_scripting_in_a_nutshell>?
It provides a good description of how the command line tools can be used
and may answer your question.
