This division allows third parties to produce their own frontends (Xsane, quiteinsane) and facilitates network scanning. Vuescan is more monolithic, Windows style, though I believe it does use SANE backends for some scanners. Vuescan is aimed particularly at film scanning so supports a wider range of film scanners than SANE. > > Last, any good web resource for learning and preparing myself for > > scanning?
