As I am the author of gscan2pdf, I am biased. However, I would say that it depends what you are trying to do. xsane is a general GTK+ frontend for libsane. gscan2pdf is specifically aimed at producing multipage documents, where scanning is part of a process which might include clean-up and OCR steps. In terms of ease of modification, it depends on what language you are familiar with. I assume that xsane is written in C. gscan2pdf is in Perl. I have tried to produce good quality code. At the moment, I am working on releasing v1.1.4, which should satisfy Perl::Critic severity 3. There is a large set of regression tests. Horses for courses. Regards Jeff
