SYNOPSIS
     scanners [X toolkitoption...]

DESCRIPTION
     scanners is a graphical tool for displaying, installing, and deleting
     scanners.  scanners' main window displays the list of currently installed
     scanners, and also shows the default system scanner.  The "Scanner" menu
     has commands for installing and deleting scanners.  Double-clicking on a
     scanner in the list, or using the Open... command on the "Scanner" menu,
     brings up gscan(1) on the selected scanner.

     Refer to the online help, accessible through the "Help" menu, or the
     Impressario User's Guide, for more details on how to use scanners.

     scanners gets its list of scanner types by running each scanner driver
     that it finds in the directory /usr/lib/scan/drv with the -query option.
     When a scanner is installed, scanners looks for an options program with
     the same base name as the driver in the directory /usr/lib/scan/opt.

     scanners maintains its list of installed scanners in the file
     /usr/lib/scan/scanners, and it stores the name of the default scanner in
     the file /usr/lib/scan/default.
