# sscan -- Sean's scanner
## Synopsis
sscan is a UI for scanning multi-page documents using the scanimage(1)
command and a flatbed scanner.
I wrote sscan because I often need to scan multi-page documents on my
GNU/Linux system, and I have only a flatbed scanner, without an ADF.
sscan was originally a crude Python script. Now it is a somewhat more
robust Haskell program, relying on the [Brick][] library.

## Screenshot
## Installation
1. Ensure that your scanner has [SANE support][].
2. Install prerequisite utilities:
````
apt-get install ocrmypdf pdftk sane-utils haskell-stack imagemagick
````
3. Use [stack][] to build and install sscan:
````
stack install sscan
````
Note that stack will automatically download and install the various
Haskell dependencies of sscan -- unfortunately, these are not yet
likely to all be installable from your distribution's mirrors.
[SANE support]: http://www.sane-project.org/sane-supported-devices.html
[stack]: https://haskellstack.org/
## Configuration
sscan does not yet have a configuration file. If it did, this could
be used to configure the available presets, the default settings on
startup, and the output directory. Patches welcome.
## Usage
Ensure that `~/.local/bin` is in your PATH environment variable.
Then open a terminal, run `sscan` and follow the on-screen
instructions. If you can't see all the key bindings, you will need to
increase the size of your terminal.
## Bugs/patches
By e-mail to `<spwhitton@spwhitton.name>`.
