+Description: scanner graphical frontends
+ This package includes :
+ o xscanimage, a scanner graphical frontend with GIMP 2.0 support
+ o scanadf, a command-line frontend for scanners with Automatic Document Feeder
+ o xcam, for acquiring images continuously from cameras.
+ .
+ An alternative to xscanimage called xsane is packaged separately.
+ .
+ The scanner frontends use SANE. SANE stands for "Scanner Access Now
+ Easy" and is an application programming interface (API) that provides
+ standardized access to any raster image scanner hardware (flatbed
+ scanner, hand-held scanner, video- and still-cameras, frame-grabbers,
+ etc.). The SANE standard is free and its discussion and development are
+ open to everybody. The current source code is written to support several
+ operating systems, including GNU/Linux, OS/2, Win32 and various Unices
+ and is available under the GNU General Public License (commercial
+ applications and backends are welcome, too, however).
