SIMPLE-SCAN(1)

โœจ NAME โœจ

simple-scan โ€” the Scanning utility, bestie ๐Ÿ’– (and yeah, the whole manual you're holding is called SIMPLE-SCAN, section 1, from the General Commands Manual, so you're in exactly the right place ๐Ÿซถ)


๐ŸŒธ SYNOPSIS ๐ŸŒธ

simple-scan [DEVICE]

๐Ÿฆ‹ DESCRIPTION ๐Ÿฆ‹

Okay so, real talk, this page is just the quick little rundown of the simple-scan command. That's it, that's the assignment ๐Ÿ’…

Document Scanner is an easy-to-use application, and its whole thing is letting you connect your scanner and immediately have the image or document sitting there in an appropriate format. No side quests, no drama, just scan and go โœจ

It was written with GTK+ libraries, and once you've installed the application you can run it straight from the Applications menu. Iconic behaviour, honestly ๐Ÿ‘‘


๐ŸŽ€ OPTIONS ๐ŸŽ€

These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (-). A summary of options is included below. For a complete description, see the Info files.

  • -d, --debug โ€” Print debugging messages. (Yes, all the little messages. Spill the tea, program โ˜•)
  • -v, --version โ€” Show release version.
  • -?, --help โ€” Show help options.
  • --help-all โ€” Show all the help options. The whole menu, the full course ๐Ÿ“
  • -d, --help-gtk โ€” Show GTK+ options.
Not me noticing that -d shows up twice in the option list up there โ€” once for --debug and once for --help-gtk. That's literally what the page says, so I'm not touching it. It's giving โœจmysteryโœจ and I respect it ๐Ÿ™ˆ
