Hi
I recently compiled the 1.0.3 sources under OS/2 (with mixed results -
doesn't work with my SnapScan 1236s).
The process is far from automatic. I had to edit config.h several times,
plus some of the Makefiles, plus the recursive make didn't work, so I
had to go from directory to directory doing makes.
Regards
Paul
