Thanks for the patch. I have had a look at it and I think it's too
special for a general purpose program like scanimage. It depends on
the option "duplex" and a setting of "both" which is not defined as
well-known option (and is not even listed in saneopts.h).

Maybe this is more suited for the scanadf program?

Anyway, I liked the idea of the progress indicator and modified it a
bit for console output. This is in CVS now.

Bye,
