- panoinfo a utility for querying the library version.
- PTmender a replacement for PTStitcher.
- PTblender implements just the colour and brightness correction of PTmender.

Important information
There may or may not be US patents covering stitching of fisheyephotographs, consequently the sourcecode of this library has an artificiallimit that prevents the use of fisheye images with a field of view greater than160°.
All files available on this site are licensed under the GNU General Public License.
Most front ends for Panorama Tools use the PTStitcher tool to dothe actual stitching, this has no available source-code, so you may need to download PTStitcherseparately or use the included PTmender replacement forPTStitcher which is still under development. Note that hugin contains a drop-in Open Sourcereplacement for PTStitcher called nona.
Binary versions
Hugin, the GUI stitching front-end, usually ships with a recent version ofthe library and command-line tools. So just downloadhugin to get hold of panotools and start stitching.
A Windows installer containing a recent version of the library, thecommand-line tools and the Photoshop plugins is available at Jim Watters' site
An OS X bundle containing the library is available here.
There will be occasional binary versions available from Sourceforgefile downloads. Though if you want the very latest version, youmay have to compile from source.
Getting the code
If you are running Windows you need to installa Mecurial client before downloading the source code - Linux userswill probably have Mercurial installed already.
Basic instructions for downloading the pano13 library source code are:
Compiling the library
Instructions can be found in the source, these instructions may beout-of-date for your platform, feel free to contribute updated versions.
Mailing lists and support
Questions and answers about usage of the various tools and front-ends belongon the PanoToolsNGmailing-list, you might want to consult the PanoTools wikibefore posting.
There is a panotools-develmailing list for questions regarding compiling the source and developing itfurther.
Anyone subscribing to 'panotools-devel' should also subscribe to panotools-cvsto receive a copy of each sourcecode SVN commit.
The PanoTools wiki aims to be thedefinitive reference for Panorama Tools. It contains a lot of usagedocumentation for the tools hosted here on sourceforge.
The Launchpad tracker hasour bug tracking database. If you find a bug in libpano13, you can report itthere.
