<i>&gt; Does anyone have some practical advice for starting out? This project</i><br>
<i>&gt; is a real stretch for me as I am not a professional C-coder, just a</i><br>
<i>&gt; read-and-modifier. I have reviewed the UMAX*.[ch] and I think I</i><br>
<i>&gt; understand it and I plan to start from there.</i><br>
<p>
<p>
When writing the Canon backend I took the existing Umax and Mustek<br>
backends as models. They are quite complete and well-written. They are<br>
also quite extensive: you don't need all those details for a first<br>
version.<br>
<p>
<p>
<i>&gt; Any other suggestions, cautions, expressions of disbelief, etc?</i><br>
<p>
Do start coding and test, test, test. Take one step at a time. Have lots<br>
of patience. When stuck, ask someone who knows. Find other people who have<br>
the same scanner so they can help you test the backend.<br>
<p>
Cheers,<br>
<p>
