Sorry, this is an autocomplete mistake. I was suggesting that you ran the
command to see what happens.
The only reason you would start Hugin like this is if you have a special
disk (such as a usb stick) where you want to put temporary files:
TEMPDIR=/media/disk-2/temp hugin &
If this 'disk-2' doesn't exist then Hugin won't work.
Your computer should already have a suitable place for temporary files,
Hugin will use that automatically, so just start Hugin by typing the name
of the program:
hugin
(you don't need the '&', this is just a complication, but feel free to ask)
