Status of xsane-win32 (windows 95, 98, 2000, NT, ME):
I am working on the gimp plugin-mode for xsane-win32.
It already does partly work. Some minor problems are
existing, but I am already able to scan an image into
the gimp-win32.
When that is done xsane-win32 does support almost all
functions of xsane for unix:
- scan and save utility
- copy utility (local scanners do work now via ghostscript)
- helpfiles do work now
- gimp plugin (soon)
The recent version (xsane-win32-0.67) can be downloaded from
http://www.wolfsburg.de/~rauch/sane/sane-xsane-win32.html
(without gimp plugin support)
I am looking for people who have the time and want to play
a bit with the copy and the fax mode:
in the moment the copy mode only does support local printers
as far as I was able to test it. I tested it with ghostscript
and selected my printer as device (sDEVICE=laserjet).
There also is a printer "win32prn" (or something like that)
that enables a connection to the windows printer dialog
(use gswin32 instead of gswin32c) but I was not able to find
how/if this works.
The fax mode is not tested at all. May be this can be done
with a faxprinter via ghostscript, may be there is a fax program
that can read postscript files.
If you find out anything interesting, please send feedback.
Bye
Oliver
