Hi everybody, You are receiving this e-mail today because you kindly showed your interest on the project aiming at developing a SANE backend for the Plustek OpticFilm 7200 film & dia scanner.
I somewhat declared myself as a leader on that project (e.g. I launched the SANE "unsupported devices" page for this scanner with some info I got from opening the box), and I made a very few steps onwards the understanding of the different URBs used by this scanner (I used Papillault's usbsnoop sniffer). Unfortunately, all along these two years I have been kept busy by many different other things, and I'm no longer a subscriber to the sane-devel list. I don't know wether Gerhard has made any progress on the matter, but I admit I can no longer "lead" this project. I'm currently in Africa for some more months, and I'll probably have a look on the points things will have reached around October or November 2007, but I'm very sorry I cannot help until then. I hope we'll make some progress soon. In attachement I give you the two scripts for parsing (parseusbsnoop_gl841.awk) and then analysing (gl842_analyse.pl) the content of a sniff from usbsnoop. In fact the analyser was initially used for the Canon Lide 60 family (gl841-based), all credits go to John Dalton. I'm very sorry for the wasted time, and if anyone of you want to dedicate some of his spare time to bring this project any further, it would alleviate the pain of my soul stricken with remorse ;-) Regards, JB -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Yes. Compile under cygwin. I have heard of problems with certain backends in the past but give it go. (See README.windows in the source distribution). cheers, Jon -- ====================== Jon Chambers ===================== http://www.jon.demon.co.uk, 020 8575 7097, 07931 961669 =========================================================
