CueCat driver for the Linux kernel
The CueCat driver is a driver for the
Linux kernel.
It provides a standard /dev interface to read barcodes from one or more
:Cue:C.A.T.[tm] devices connected to your computer.
This driver has been created and is currently maintained by
Pierre-Philippe Coupard

CueCat driver 0.1.5
New :
Minor correction in the driver when compiling the kernel without proc
filesystem support.
The driver now has an official minor and major numbers. It has a single
device file again that serves barcodes read by all the CueCat devices
connected to the system
CueAct can now handle different CueCat devices in different ways. Also
added wildcards in the CueCat ID and the barcode type
The decoder and the kernel driver have been completely re-architectured
to support 2 Cuecats, one on a keyboard port and the other on a PS/2
port. Check it out, 2 CueCats on the same PC !
Many bugfixes in the kernel driver.
Now the kernel driver can be built as a module
The barcode decoder now compensates for the "dropping UPC-E check digit"
bug in the CueCat's firmware
More barcode types supported by the CueAct utility (UPS & Fedex
tracking barcodes, magazines ...)
