+Xsane as Gimp plugin

+If xsane is started as Gimp plugin, the scanned image +automatically is transfered to the Gimp. +
  +
  +
  +
 
+ +
+ +
  +

To start xsane as a gimp plugin, you have to set a symbolic link from +the xsane binary to a GIMP plug-ins directory. If xsane is located in /usr/local/bin  +and you use-gimp-1.0.x do: +

+
ln -s /usr/local/bin/xsane ~/.gimp/plug-ins/
+
+if you use gimp-1.1.x, you have to do: +
+
ln -s /usr/local/bin/xsane ~/.gimp-1.1/plug-ins/
+
+You can start xsane from the GIMP menu Xtns/Xsane if GIMP-version +< 1.1.9, since GIMP-version-1.1.9 you can start xsane from the GIMP +menu File/Acquire. It contains short-cuts to the SANE devices that +were available at the time xsane was queried.
+ +
Note that gimp(1) caches these short-cuts in ~/.gimp/pluginrc. +Thus, when the list of  available devices changes (e.g., a new scanner +is installed or the device of the scanner has changed),  then it is +typically desirable to rebuild this cache. To do this, you can either  +touch(1) the xsane binary (e.g.,"touch  /usr/local/bin/xsane") or +delete the plugin cache (e.g.,  "rm  ~/.gimp/pluginrc"). Either +way, invoking gimp(1) afterwards will cause the pluginrc to be rebuilt. +

If xsane is started as GIMP plugin it always sends the scanned image +to the GIMP, copy- or fax- mode can not selected when xsane runs as GIMP +plugin!
