The only known protocol that should bring some unity into this +chaos is the TWAIN interface, but this is too imprecise to +allow a stable scanning framework. Therefore, SANE comes +with its own protocol, so the vendor drivers can't be used. + +SANE is split into back ends and front ends. The +back ends are drivers for the supported scanners.
