This is a list of what I want to change/include for xsane. If you have any suggestions: mail to Oliver.Rauch@rauch-domain.de Sign explaination: # planned for XSane-1.0.0 + planned to do this soon/higher priority (but not promised for XSane-1.0) - comes later/lower priority device-selection: - preselect last used device save-function: - list of last used filenames - enable filters in save mode? multipage-project: - reduce to lineart projects: # add selection for project directory to setup # store mail, fax and multipage projects in project directory # add buton "open project" to all project dialogs # disable "scan batch" button when we are in project mode and the project does not exist scan-routines: # allow additional image data after each row (is sane standard conform) fax-function: ++ # add new image types to fax fileformat: tiff/pbm/g3 # delete page/project: create dialog "really remove?" # add possibility to create a multi page file that includes the complete fax + zoom ? + create lock file with information, add progress bar while spooling fax (how?) + add coverpage with editor like in mail function (may be same routines for mail and fax) - add send delayed option - add options for sender/receiver Name - add cancel button while preparing fax pages email-function: # delete image/project: create dialog "really remove?" # test for existance of lockfile? - add ASMTP CRAM-MD5 authentication - add cancel button while preparing mail images gamma function: # add target gamma (e.g. for web publishing) - correct gtk custom gamma functions and include it or better: write an own gamma curve widget medium selection: - medium definition in dependance of the scanner (?) (I am not sure if this makes sense with color managemant) medium definition: # make grayscale values do not influence color values preview function: # allow additional image data after each row (is sane standard conform) - force size of scanarea in pixels (calculate resolution) this will not produce exact results with some scanners!!! viewer function: ++ # clone to 8 bit: reduce 16bit image to 8bit ++ # crop to new viewer ++ # fill rectangular area (e.g. for masking unwanted parts of a scanned fax) + # print image - # show histogram of viewer image internal: ++ # add range check / valid value when reading xsane.rc/*.drc files # test if image file is writable before scan is started + cleanup of configuration file handling (problem with old config files should already be solved) + add color management - may be via xcmsdb or scarse (www.scarse.org) + add several defaults (fax=> mode=gray, ocr=> mode=gray, ...) + test memory after each call of malloc - partly done - average of a multiple scan of the same image ??? - include much more parameters when saving images - mostly done - add infrared filter for transmissive rgbi scans (sane-2): use next neighbour with high transmission(i) value (may be to viewer) ? project save/load with preview image, scanmode, .... ??? include special functions for GNOME/KDE - drag and drop for preview or viewer image? - other drag and drop functions? - image copy/paste functions? TWAIN: - add a twain-win32 interface (for xsane-win32) - define a twain-unix interface in cooperation with TWAIN-group (first contact to TWAIN in summer 1999, TWAIN is intersted in creating a TWAIN-unix interface that uses sane as scanner driver API) - add a twain-unix interface to xsane WIN32 version of xsane/sane - may be xsane-win32 without cygwin.dll on native win32 mode - may be later we make a sane-WIN32 version so that the backends do work too
