Hi all, updated the usage-information for scanbd. Now installations and special / complicated setups should be more easy now.
Are there any volunteers interested in this, especially baking packages form the sources or doing more testing with different scanners? Any help is very welcome! As usual the code is at: svn co https://scanbd.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/scanbd scanbd [ scanbd is a scanner button daemon. It polls the scanner buttons looking for buttons pressed or function knob changes or other scanner events as paper inserts / removals and at the same time allows also scan-applications to access the scanners. If buttons are pressed, etc., various actions can be submitted (scan, copy, email, ...). The function knob values are passed to the action-scripts as well. Scan actions are also signaled via dbus. scanbd can use sane-backends or some special backends from the (old) scanbuttond project. Plattforms: Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD ] -- Wilhelm
