    Hi,

    Oliver Rauch proposed some time ago to add the following entries (columns)
    to sane-backends.html/.desc files:

    :ta (TA) Support for transparency adapter (slide kit)
    :adf (ADF) Support for automatic document feeder

    Possible values:

    "i": ADF/TA is included in scanner and supportde by SANE (e.g. for slide
         scanners)
    "+": ADF/TA is optinally available for the scanner ans supported by SANE
    "-": ADF/TA not supported by SANE
    "?": support unknown

    An example of the resulting HTML pages is at
    http://hmg.home.pages.de/sane/download/sane-backends.html . Only mustek.desc
    and mustek_pp.desc are included (the latter without any changes). The
    mustek.desc example file is at
    http://hmg.home.pages.de/sane/download/mustek.desc . The changed
    sane-desc.el is at http://hmg.home.pages.de/sane/download/sane-desc.el .

    It would be better to use a fixed list of entries instead of a string (like
    the :status key word) but I don't know enough of Emacs lisp to do this.
    Please, if someone knows Emacs Lisp just do it :-)

    Comments?

    Bye,
      Henning
