I got to thinking on this some more. I don't really need "book store"
software, any store software that can use a bar code reader would work, I
hope. What do you guys think?

In windows bar code scanners / kernel can be configured to dump ascii
data straight into the keyboard buffer so you don't need app support.
Is the same not true in Linux?

Greg

What I am looking for is some software that will first scan in the bar code on
a book, then look online for the title, writer etc, then add that info to my
database. I found software that can do that, but its only for windows. Once I
have all the books in the database I could use any online store software to
run my web site.
