Here are instructions on using python scripts in blender, which you'll need
for the "panos-for-pipmak" file:

The Blender script is still in a bit of a mess, since I mostly cannibalized
it from something else.  Most notably, it doesn't return the cameras to
their original orientation when it's done.  I also haven't made it correctly
do the "1 extra pixel larger than 90 degrees" thing, because it hasn't been
noticeable at a 1024 resolution :p  Oh, and the cameras need to be named
things that Pipmak recognizes as node names--so only numbers if you're using
the build that's on the website.

The "path" you set in the script UI should be the directory you intend to be
the .pipmak directory for the project.  That's where the script will also
save the object location file, called "camExport", and where you should save
the connectivity map called "connectivity" (I've attached an example).  You
should also execute the pipmak-auto-handle.py script from immediately inside
the .pipmak project directory.  The easiest way is to place a copy of the
script in the directory, but you obviously don't have to.

Let me know if you have any questions or run into any problems!
