Petter,
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> The *.desc files do not (yet) seem to have a field that indicate the
|
|
<BR>
|
|
connection type. I see several possibilities:
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> 1. Add text to the top of the page that says that a scanner is SCSI
|
|
<BR>
|
|
unless otherwise noted in the Comments. Developers need to take
|
|
<BR>
|
|
initiative to update their comments: fields.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> 2. Add a bus: keyword to the *.desc file. By default, a scanner will
|
|
<BR>
|
|
be SCSI unless specified otherwise. Please suggest better keyword
|
|
<BR>
|
|
names if necessary. Developers will have to take initiative to
|
|
<BR>
|
|
update their bus: fields.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> 2a. Add the connection type to the Comment column.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> 2b. Add a new connection type column to the table.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> 3. If there is some well-known way of obtaining the connection type
|
|
<BR>
|
|
from the code, use that (help!). See 2a and 2b for display.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> The first one is obviously the easiest and since most of the
|
|
<BR>
|
|
scanners are SCSI, might be sufficient. The third one would be the
|
|
<BR>
|
|
most robust since it wouldn't depend on developers updating a *.desc
|
|
<BR>
|
|
file.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> What is the consensus here?
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P><PRE>
