You know, most scanners come only with a TWAIN module for Windoze.
I'm a programmer for the not so well known but nonetheless very good
operating system GEOS. GEOS loads on top of DOS, using the DOS file
system, but has support and low level drivers for the rest of the
hardware. it can, however, access DOS drivers if needed. Unfortunately,
there is not a single scanner driver available for GEOS. So I want to
build one and I think, your SANE project is a good start.
I haven't looke dinto all the stuff available, but I hopy you can give
me some help porting drivers and UI to the GEOS system.
GEOS has Borland C++ 3.1/4.0 as C compiler (with its own object
precompiler, so C++ is not used for OOP) and its own object oriented
assembler, mainly for drivers.
I have a Agfa SnapScan 600 here and could start with this scanner.
Some comments about general problems would be very helpful.
