Thanks. Finally got yumex to give me back some worthwhile search
results and also found:
quearcode
Created one but printing is a little challenging, to get them a
'right' size. But for camera, reading 2x3 wallet size should be ok.
And applications that use the computer's camera to read the QR code
and deliver the text string.
# yum install zbar
P.S. I found this by using # yum search barcode
Yes, and it seems to be the only reader. Doesn't list QR that I can
see. Well install it and see if it works with my camera and reads
codes I make.
It does support QR codes, but I can't get it to do anything, other
than to show the QR code in its window. There is no action to read
and save the image. Maybe I should 1st try it with a 'real' qr code
on some package.
I got zbar to work. The problem was that quearcode calls shotwell to
display the qr code, and shotcode was chopping up the image on
printing. I ended up using gthumb to print it better, then zbar was
able to scan it and send the content to stdout. I also used a scanning
app on my phone to read it and see the text. So now I can put together
my demo.
thanks.
