I'm referring to XSane version 0.84. > Problem 1: > File names beginning with 0 are truncated to nine digits. > Setting STEP to "0" does not cure this. If I set preferences->filename counter length to 10 (or inactive), nothing is truncated. If I set step to 0, the counter isn't incremented. > Problem 2: > I started out leaving STEP at 1 (I was afterall re-entering a new file > name > for each scan, so was not worried about what xSane thought the next one > should be.) > I then had an underrun error message for the step counter. > That did not worry me, but subsequently everytime I entered a new file > name > xSane erased it and replaced it by 2147483647.png (that is [2^31 - 1].png, I > think). > Setting STEP to 0 would not deter it. > (Rather than restrating xSane, I changed file naming strategy to > 1234567890isbn.png.) I only get the underrun error when I use a filename of 0000000000.png and a step of -1. But the filename just stays the same. If I enter a random new name, no underrun occurs. I have no idea why I can't reproduce your problem. Did you also use version 0.84? Bye, Henning
