Hi,<br>
|
|||
|
|
I was not really prepared for the strong feelings the Win32 port issue<br>
|
|||
|
|
generated. Though, with a Win issue involved, I should have guessed...<br>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
I guess the designers would be happy to see SANE used on as wide a range of<br>
|
|||
|
|
OS as possible (if you go by the introduction page on mostang.com). I will<br>
|
|||
|
|
be starting with the 0.74 version (right now I am experimenting with 0.73).<br>
|
|||
|
|
I expect to base SCSI operations on ASPI. W95 has ASPI in its distribution,<br>
|
|||
|
|
so<br>
|
|||
|
|
it makes a good starting point. NT, we need to use miniport etc. so maybe as<br>
|
|||
|
|
a later step.<br>
|
|||
|
|
Any suggestions appreciated.<br>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
TIA,<br>
|
|||
|
|

Not really. The reason I plan to use SANE is to overcome the difficulties of<br>
|
|||
|
|
TWAIN.<br>
|
|||
|
|
Windows does not come into the picture. I need to use scanners on different<br>
|
|||
|
|
platforms -<br>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Windows _and_ embedded systems as well.<br>

important.<br>

Where (and hopefully, what?) are these EMX files ?<br>

Thanks! I'll take you up on that offer.<br>

That would be a real good thing.<br>

I guess that will also be needed at some point.<br>
