NAME

   sane-s9036 - SANE backend for Siemens 9036 flatbed scanners

DESCRIPTION

   The  sane-s9036  library  implements  a  SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
   backend that provides access to Siemens 9036 flatbed scanners.

DEVICE NAMES

   This backend expects device names of the form:

          special

   Where special is the path-name for the special device that  corresponds
   to  a  SCSI  scanner.  The  special  device name must be a generic SCSI
   device or a symlink to such a device.   The  program  sane-find-scanner
   helps  to  find out the correct device. Under Linux, such a device name
   could be /dev/sga or  /dev/sge,  for  example.   See  sane-scsi(5)  for
   details.

FILES

   /etc/sane.d/s9036.conf
          The   backend   configuration  file  (see  also  description  of
          SANE_CONFIG_DIR below).

   /usr/lib/arch_triplet/sane/libsane-s9036.a
          The static library implementing this backend.

   /usr/lib/arch_triplet/sane/libsane-s9036.so
          The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems
          that support dynamic loading).

ENVIRONMENT

   SANE_CONFIG_DIR
          This environment variable specifies the list of directories that
          may contain the configuration file.  Under UNIX, the directories
          are  separated  by a colon (`:'), under OS/2, they are separated
          by a semi-colon  (`;').   If  this  variable  is  not  set,  the
          configuration  file  is  searched  in  two  default directories:
          first,  the  current  working  directory  (".")  and   then   in
          /etc/sane.d.  If the value of the environment variable ends with
          the directory separator character, then the default  directories
          are  searched  after  the explicitly specified directories.  For
          example, setting SANE_CONFIG_DIR to "/tmp/config:" would  result
          in   directories  "tmp/config",  ".",  and  "/etc/sane.d"  being
          searched (in this order).

   SANE_DEBUG_S9036
          If the library was compiled with  debug  support  enabled,  this
          environment  variable controls the debug level for this backend.
          Higher debug levels increase the verbosity of the output.

          Example: export SANE_DEBUG_S9036=4

Access to source code provides access to a level of capabilities/information that companies protect though copyrights. Open source is a core component of the Internet and it is available to you. Leverage the billions of dollars in resources and capabilities to build a career, establish a business or change the world. The potential is endless for those who understand the opportunity.

Business Opportunity - Goldman Sachs, IBM and countless large corporations are leveraging open source to reduce costs, develop products and increase their bottom lines. Learn what these companies know about open source and how open source can give you the advantage.



Free Software


Free Software provides computer programs and capabilities at no cost but more importantly, it provides the freedom to run, edit, contribute to, and share the software. The importance of free software is a matter of access, not price. Software at no cost is a benefit but ownership rights to the software and source code is far more significant.

Free Office Software - The Libre Office suite provides top desktop productivity tools for free. This includes, a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation engine, drawing and flowcharting, database and math applications. Libre Office is available for Linux or Windows.



Free Books


The Free Books Library is a collection of thousands of the most popular public domain books in an online readable format. The collection includes great classical literature and more recent works where the U.S. copyright has expired. These books are yours to read and use without restrictions.

Source Code - Want to change a program or know how it works? Open Source provides the source code for its programs so that anyone can use, modify or learn how to write those programs themselves. Visit the GNU source code repositories to download the source.



Education


Study at Harvard, Stanford or MIT - Open edX provides free online courses from Harvard, MIT, Columbia, UC Berkeley and other top Universities. Hundreds of courses for almost all major subjects and course levels. Open edx also offers some paid courses and selected certifications.

Linux Manual Pages - A man or manual page is a form of software documentation found on Linux/Unix operating systems. Topics covered include computer programs (including library and system calls), formal standards and conventions, and even abstract concepts.
