Hi all,
just committed a new version of scanbd fixing a problem with libudev on
debian/wheezy.
Also started maintaining a contrib directory for useful contribution
like actions-scripts or special configurations.
As usual the code is at:
svn co https://scanbd.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/scanbd scanbd
[
scanbd is a scanner button daemon. It polls the scanner buttons looking
for buttons pressed or function knob changes or other scanner events as
paper inserts / removals and at the same time allows
also scan-applications to access the scanners. If buttons are pressed,
etc., various actions can be submitted (scan, copy, email, ...) via
action scripts. The function knob values are passed to the
action-scripts as well. Scan actions are also signaled via dbus. This
can be useful for foreign applications.
On platforms which support signaling of dynamic device insertion /
removal (libudev, dbus, hal) scanbd supports this as well.
scanbd can use all sane-backends or some special backends from the (old)
scanbuttond project.
Supported platforms: Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD
