Basically, yes. Maybe you must add some -I options so the includes are
found.

Also basically yes. But you aren't linking to libsane but you want to
use sane internal functions. So you need to link to libsanei. You may
also need to link to libusb. Some -L options to point to the directory
where the lib is may also be necessary.

You could also have a look at the tools directory, e.g. how
sane-find-scanner is linked.

"status"
And I guess you don't want to write 8 bytes starting at Absolute
address 8 ...
