Well, if you want a new feature for xscanimage, write a patch :-) Currently nobody actively maintains xscanimage. I'll fix grave bugs when someone notices them and add patches, if they look useful. But otherwise, not much work to improve the features of xscanimage is done by the SANE developers themselves. Concerning your idea: If you make it optional (e.g. a preferences menu option) and test for all the pnm types (e.g. pgm) and better in upper and lower case a patch would be accepted, I guess. Thanks, Henning
