Does anyone know how StarOffice chooses to use SANE -- do they use a<br>
static collection of backends built in to their proprietary (?) frontend<br>
or do they use the dynamic linking features of SANE, and pull in the<br>
libs according to dll.conf? I initially assumed they had re-implemented<br>
SANE-net but the negative reports from people using a scanner on a<br>
remote machine with StarOffice suggest otherwise.<br>
<p>
Either way, if this is confirmed, the SANE web site should definitely<br>
add a pointer (after checking with StarOffice's manufacturers) saying<br>
"Look! SANE allows office productivity packages to work with any<br>
supported scanner -- from a single common interface"<br>
