i think we can do that, but write it in a more general way- backends must allow the 'name' argument to sane_open to be either the SANE_Device.name the backend returned in sane_get_devices, or the device name used by the sanei_ functions, if those names differ. still not sure how to document that requirement for the front-end author, because those device names will vary quite a bit between platforms... allan -- "The truth is an offense, but not a sin"
