Panotools::Script is a perl module for reading/writing and 
manipulating hugin .pto project files, this 0.24 release fixes some 
bugs, has some major refactoring, and adds some new tools:

- - match-n-shift is a control point generator wrapper that 
understands about bracketed stacks.  It has been split into two 
tools: match-n-shift still takes a list of photos, but now creates 
a .pto project with as much information as can be read from EXIF 
data; ptoanchor is the complementary tool that reads a .pto 
project and adds control points.

- - ptochain and ptobind are specialist control point generators and 
have an identical interface to ptoanchor:  ptochain only tries to 
connect consecutive photos (such as a movie sequence) and ptobind 
tries to connect just the first and last photos in any existing 
connected groups.

- - ptofill is another specialist control point generator with the 
same interface as ptoanchor:  it looks at the relative positions 
of photos and only adds points to overlapping photos, i.e. the 
project needs to be approximately correctly laid-out for this tool 
to be effective.

- - gigastart is a specialist tool similar to panostart.  Whereas 
panostart takes a list of photos, splits it into likely panoramas 
and writes a Makefile for the full panorama workflow from 
generating control-points to stitching; gigastart takes a list of 
photos comprising a single multi-row panorama and writes a 
Makefile for every step from generating control points to 
stitching.

- - All the above tools make extensive use of Makefiles for managing 
sub-processes, so they are inherently suitable for parallel 
processing.  This Makefile generation has been split to a separate 
perl module.
