Title:
  running `make' is not self-documenting

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  It is wonderful that the actual merging process is now "encoded" in a
  `make' script; however, the window with the report from the `make'
  process is not helpful enough.

  First of all, I only SUSPECT that this output is from running `make';
  it is not indicated in the UI.  Second, it is not clear what is the
  directory where `make' is invoked, and what is the "target" which is
  "made".  (At least on Windows compiled bundle; other flavors of `make'
  may emit "Entering directory..." message at start.)

  I strongly suggest adding three lines at start of the window, with
  something like

    chdir /INITIAL/DIRECTORY
    make -f MAKE_SCRIPT TARGET
    ----------------------

  (the form above does not require translation ;-).

  ======================
  Another problem with this window is that it is not possible to cut&paste from this window when the output is "very active", and took more than one page: the marked region disappears on each screen output.  This may be "temporarily fixed" by binding Control-A to "mark all", so that one can type C-A C-C and hope to copy all content before the next line of output appears.  (Or just have all the output selected by default, so one C-C is enough.)  A more permanent solution may be to have a button "Paste all" (requires translation).
