Of course, I understand that. Unfortunately, as much as I
would like to
see the LiDE 80 being supported, at the moment my time
doesn't permit
any work on the code. But since I own one of those scanners,
I could
test it, because that's supposed to be not as
time-consuming.
If there is anybody working on supporting the LiDE 80, let
me know and
I'll provide log-files, backtraces, whatever.
Thanks, Nick.
