[sane-devel] devices and backends

[John Doe]

OK,
is it right, I have von 100 percent security that in every situation 
the -d command in scanimage runs!?
My program is for blind person like an windows reading system only on 
the better OS!! hehehe!
My biggest problem are the scanner and the speech!! I develop this 
system on PPC!! and their are not many TTS!!
The scanner is, that I must automatic every point, like write into the 
conf files and so on!!
I have hope that this point is realized with scanimage!!
We make an system inclusive the OS Linux or BSD!! So that the blind 
person only must put the CD in the drive!!

Thanks for helping!!
