[sane-devel] Question about the SANE Image Data Format

[m. allan noah]

dude- download the sane-backend source tarball, and look at
scanimage.c in the frontends directory.

but really, it's not that big of a deal- in fact, you can add three
lines to the top of the data buffer and get a valid pnm.

also- turn off the html email. it's bad form on a mailing list.
