ICPFIND("1")

πŸ’… ICPFIND("1") β€” the Hugin girlie's guide πŸ’…

okay so real talk, bestie β€” this is icpfind, a page from the HUGIN manual, section 1, and it's about to be your new fave little command-line bestie 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

icpfind β€” literally just: use heuristic control-point detection strategies. that's the whole vibe πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

icpfind [options] -o output.pto input.pto

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so picture this: icpfind is a command-line tool that lets you use the various different control point detectors and the heuristic control point detector strategies that are defined in the Hugin Parameters for Control Point Detectors dialog. iconique. πŸ‘‘

and like β€” hear me β€” it does not introduce new functionality. nope, not even a little. what it does is let you run the different control points detectors from the command-line instead of only in the GUI. that's it. that's the whole slay. ✨

bestie, read that again if you need to: it's a CLI wrapper around stuff you could already do in the GUI. no new powers, just terminal access. πŸ’…

πŸ’– OPTIONS πŸ’–

  • -o, --output=file.pto β€” the output Hugin PTO file. this one is required, no cap, you cannot skip it. 🚨
  • -s, --setting=NUMBER β€” which setting to use, as defined by the order in the Hugin GUI Preferences. expects an integer, fr fr. the first setting in the Preferences has the number 0, the next is 1, and so on forever and ever. if you leave it undefined then the setting defined as default in the Hugin Preferences gets used. defaults are lowkey iconic. 🌈
