Hi!
I'm trying to see what SANE has to offer for page scanners or sheet 
scanners (the portable, non-bulk feed variety).  I selected Boolean 
search, then entered search terms:  page scanner, page scanner and, 
page and scanner, plus the same combinations for sheet scanner
It seems there is no way of searching for a string?  I'm search results 
with both words separated, or, with both words concatenated (with no 
space between).  Could you give me an example I could follow?
Thanks,
Ron Cameron

RC-

the sane search engine does not contain specifications for equipment,
only the vendor and model info. It is probably better to find a
machine you are interested in at some vendor like newegg.com or
amazon.com, and then check the sane support lists for that.

I don't quite understand what exactly you want to do. The search engine
is an htdig engine, so you can check their documentation:

http://www.htdig.org/hts_method.html

So a search like (page OR sheet) AND scanner is valid.

However, there's no way to search for documents where the words page and
scanner are close to each other.

You can try google for that:

http://google.com/search?q=page-scanner%20site:lists.alioth.debian.org
