Re: Bar Code Scanner in Linux



Hi,
It depends on what bar code scanner you are trying to use.
There are barcode scanners that get inserted beetween the keyboard and the
computer. You can configure these type of scanners usually through reading
in config instructions in form of barcode supplied by the manufacturer.
They then simply send the barcode translated to characters to the computer
just as if you had entered it with the keyboard. So if you use such
scanners you are not going to have any troubles.
