-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This program is Giftware.

An Amiga
An AGFA SNAPSCAN 310 SCSI scanner
An SCSI interface
MUI V3.3
jpeg.library for jpeg saving.
asyncio.library for faster operations (tmp files)

Very simple to use !

Set the file format (and parameters) for image saving.
You can set up the image size in the image window.

Set the scanning resolution (1..600 DPI)
Use 'Preview' to see a preview of the whole scanner window.
Use 'Scan' to scan at given resolution & size.
Use 'Save' to save the scan image.
Image window
Move and resize the scan limits in order to change scan parameters.
Bugs
----
Return error when scanner light is off (power save mode) on scan command
-> you should wait scanner to be ready before trying a new scan command.
May work with SNAPSCAN 600 but not tested.
Sometimes, the scanner hangup at the end of the scan. It's seems to be
a bug in the scanner firmware, because it happens with PC Software too.
Sometimes, the scanner origin initialisation at power on is not correct,
causing an offset (scanner can go to the mecanical stops at full stroke).
Settings of the image size is only read at startup.
