    Hi Richard,

    then I think you are the right man to port sane to windows.
    That sounds very difficult, but it possibly is not that difficult.
    The main thing that must be done is to add support for
    the windows aspi driver to sanei_scsi. If everything is
    perfect the command line program scanimage already could
    work with that.

    May be it would be a good idea to do this with cygnus and gcc.

    Bye
    Oliver
