<i>&gt; Hello,</i><br>
<i>&gt; I tested xsane-0.11 on linux 2.0.32 with net backend and a local HP</i><br>
<i>&gt; PhotoSmart.</i><br>
<i>&gt; I had some crashes if I browse through the options at different places.</i><br>
<i>&gt; Especially if I unswitch RGB default. It seems this depends on the</i><br>
<i>&gt; history what is done earlier. But normally it works. 0.10 seems to be</i><br>
<i>&gt; more stable.</i><br>
<i>&gt; I also compiled xsane for my Unixware Version - it works.</i><br>
<i>&gt; But the lines of code containing the C++ syntax with // as comment</i><br>
<i>&gt; increase from version to version. For portability if not using gcc this</i><br>
<i>&gt; takes time to alter and compile.</i><br>
<i>&gt; Very nice that the preview window follow the gamma, bightness ...</i><br>
<i>&gt; changes.</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; At least one proposal for an enhencement to xsane. Unix like OS have the</i><br>
<i>&gt; powerfull</i><br>
<i>&gt; element of pipes. Xsane must use temp files for copy to lp anywhere. So</i><br>
<i>&gt; it would increase flexibility if xsane would detect that stdout is a</i><br>
<i>&gt; pipe, disable filename window and scan button and write ppm data to</i><br>
<i>&gt; stdout. It should be done in half an hour.</i><br>
<i>&gt; I made me a version of xscanimage with this behavior.</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
Hi Wolfgang,<br>
<p>
Sane does not use pipes for writing image-data, because three pass scanners send<br>
the image data in single colors. So scanimage/xsane needs to store at least two<br>
of the<br>
three colors and then merge it together. That makes a lot of problems with pipes<br>
beacuse<br>
you can not do a rewind on a pipe.<br>
<p>
If you use the photocopy mode of xsane, xsane writes the postscript file to<br>
stdout.<br>
You can enter any command that can handle pipes in printersetup, eg: "xv -"<br>
instead of "lpr -"<br>
<p>
I don`t see any advantage of writing a pnm file to stdout in a graphical user<br>
interface. You can use<br>
scanimage for it.<br>
<p>
Bye<br>
Oliver<br>
