Hi,
first of all, thank you for new version! It's nice to see that this
project is still alive. :)
Next, I've just made Slovak translation of Alexandria 0.64b1 (see the
attachment).
And another issue - I'm now a computer science student at Comenius
University in Bratislava, Slovakia. This term every student chooses some
interesting topic and makes a project about it (a piece of software or
something like that). My project is to make webcams work as barcode
scanners with Alexandria. I've googled for some webcam-to-barcode-scanner
library and found Zebra ( http://zebra.sourceforge.net/ ). It's written in
C but I've read somewhere that it is possible to work with C libraries in
Ruby. I've an idea that encapsulating it as WebcamScanner class and
registring it in Scanner Registry should make it (although I don't know
how to make UI for it, but I hope it wouldn't be too hard). Is this a good
idea or should I try something else?
Sincerely,
Peter Kovac
