Hi,
would it be possible, to add an option called "button-state" to saneopts.h ?
"button-state" is an option of SANE_TYPE_INT with SANE_UNIT_NONE and
SANE_CONSTRAINT_NONE and capability SANE_CAP_SOFT_DETECT (i.e. a read-only
option).
If a frontend detects such an option, it can use a timer to q

Hi,
small problem:
Is there a well-known location, where a backend should/could save some data?
I'd like to save some calibration data (shading,exposure ...), but I'm not
sure how to do this.
Should this go to $HOME/.sane ? Does this work with saned?
Thanks,

Hi (especially Henning),
while playing with the test-backend I noticed a strange behaviour with the
non-blocking IO option enabled. E.g. a preview scan in xsane, gray/8bit,
testimage option enabled *sometimes* causes xsane to hang.

the backend translations?
Reason:
The KDE i18n framework has been switched to UTF8; .mo files generated from
.po files encoded e.g. in iso-8859-1 are not displayed correctly (missing
"Umlaute"/vowel mutations).

As far as I can see, the backend translation is merged with the saneopts
