Grr. I got a cuecat, and installed the Linux drivers.
I then dropped to console as required, and ran read_cuecat.
If I run it over a barcode, it doesn't do anything - just sits there until I hit escape.
Any advice?

Yes. Rather than using the linux drivers which want to trap the console or something, just use the program that reads from stdin (decode, not read_cuecat). There are two seperate cuecat packages, I guess I didn't make that clear in the last post.

It works - thanks.
BTW, can I have your hacked version that can do UPC/ISBN/etc. lookups? Mail it to teferi@aether.dhs.org
