gaze what sane-backends

SANE stands for "Scanner Access Now Easy" and is an application
programming interface (API) that provides standardized access to any
raster image scanner hardware (flatbed scanner, hand-held scanner,
video- and still-cameras, frame-grabbers, etc.). The SANE API is public
domain and its discussion and development is open to everybody.


gaze what xsane

XSane is a graphical scanning frontend for SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy).
It uses the SANE-library to talk to scanners. This means that XSane does
not support any scanners itself. Here you can find out which scanners
are supported by the SANE-library.

xsane depends on sane.

Special instructions in the spells (POST_INSTALL) included to display when
installed on how to configure your scanner properly.

Have Fun! - toga
