I can't get autopano-sift 1.6 to start from within hugin either.

I have autopano-complete.sh working now, thanks to Jean-Luc Coulon's 
help. I am running it from the commandline and it is working. So I know 
that part is good.

When I pressed the "create control points" button in hugin, it asked me 
if I wanted autopano, or autopano-sift. I chose autopano-sift, and then 
it popped up with the greyed out progress bar that said something like 
"look in the console window to see the progress", so I looked at the 
console and I saw autopano-sift going to work for a little bit, but then 
it just died and popped up this error message. It's a strange error 
message, and I see it a lot with hugin... it's a list of files, with 
full paths, in quotes, on one line. the entire dialogue is the width of 
my screen and the text goes very far off the edge of the screen on both 
sides, but the text is cut off as the window is only the width of the 
screen. So I can't read what the actual error message is, except that 
part of it is a list of the pictures in the panorama.

Just as a note, I store my pictures in directories like "YYYY.MM.DD - 
City, Description" so I use funny characters like the periods and the 
commas and spaces and hyphens and everything... I know nona has a bit of 
trouble with the periods in the filenames (it tries to cut off 
everything after the first period and put ".tif" there instead), so 
maybe this could be some problem with hugin not liking the way the files 
are named? All I know for sure is that autopano-sift works just fine 
when I call it from outside of hugin.

I get the same error message when I try to use enblend within hugin.

So far, I have only been able to successfully use autopano-sift & 
enblend from outside of hugin, which is reflected in the tutorial I wrote.
