Hi,
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>Today I took a look at all the manual pages. I fixed some small issues:
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>* Added sane(7) to all manual pages (if this wasn't done already)
|
|
<BR>
|
|
* Changed @LIBDIR@ from $(libdir) to $(libdir)/sane in doc/Makefile.in as
|
|
<BR>
|
|
this is the place where the SANE libraries are placed. This was wrong in
|
|
<BR>
|
|
all manual pages for years. As I didn't want to change all the
|
|
<BR>
|
|
manual pages, I did the change in Makefile.in.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
* Fixed output of whatis/apropos for some backends. These had an empty
|
|
<BR>
|
|
line after the ".sh NAME" and therefore the description line was
|
|
<BR>
|
|
empty. (test with "apropos sane"
|
|
<BR>
|
|
* Fixed some minor formatting issues in some backends. Hint: If you
|
|
<BR>
|
|
want to write something bold or italic and directly after that a "."
|
|
<BR>
|
|
(period), you can use ".IR important ." or ".BR important .".
|
|
<BR>
|
|
* I changed/updated some paragraphs in sane-scsi.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>Details are in ChangeLog.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>While reading through all the man pages I found some more issues
|
|
<BR>
|
|
(mostly minor things) that I didn't fix. I put the list to TODO, so we
|
|
<BR>
|
|
don't forget to fix them. If yor backend is listed here, please check
|
|
<BR>
|
|
your man page.I haven't read every single word of every man page so
|
|
<BR>
|
|
there are definitely more bugs than these:
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> * Check for logical errors and spelling
|
|
<BR>
|
|
- agfafocus (CONFIGURATION: Microtek scanners? SANE_DEBUG_AGFAFOCUS:
|
|
<BR>
|
|
SANE_DEBUG_UMAX values? Last paragraph of DEBUG)
|
|
<BR>
|
|
- apple (Compression (AppleScanner), Multiple Windows (AppleScanner),
|
|
<BR>
|
|
ftpdev.info.apple.com doesn't exist, DEBUG)
|
|
<BR>
|
|
- artec (BUGS)
|
|
<BR>
|
|
- mustek_pp (SEE ALSO, there is no sane-musteka4s2(5))
|
|
<BR>
|
|
- plustek: (<A HREF="http://www.linuxhacker.org/listscgi-bin/ezmlm-cgi/3">http://www.linuxhacker.org/listscgi-bin/ezmlm-cgi/3</A>: not found!)
|
|
<BR>
|
|
- umax_pp (DESCRIPTION: "sticky" bit --> isn't this the "setuid" bit?;
|
|
<BR>
|
|
DEVICE NAMES: "...only one parallel port this port...")
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> * Check for formatting bugs in manual pages:
|
|
<BR>
|
|
- apple (The list of scanners doesn't look like a table)
|
|
<BR>
|
|
- artec (CONFIGURATION: F<artec.conf> and similar)
|
|
<BR>
|
|
- nec (DESCRIPTION, list doesn't look like a table)
|
|
<BR>
|
|
- pie (Last two lines in table are not aligned; the last .PP generates a
|
|
<BR>
|
|
new page)
|
|
<BR>
|
|
- sharp (table isn't aligned)
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> * If you mention sane-devel, also mention the website concerning
|
|
<BR>
|
|
subscription (<A HREF="http://www.mostang.com/sane/mail.html">http://www.mostang.com/sane/mail.html</A>), because you can't
|
|
<BR>
|
|
write to sane-devel without subscribing.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
Or use your own mail address in the manual page.

These are updated when installing to a non-standard prefix.
