A Software Decoder for HP-41 Barcodes

Well, "SC" was an application ("Special Characters") which was not included in the actual ROM but appeard in the manual, together with the "SCDEMO" application to just print a table with the "new" characters. I just used it as an example to print something.

Yes, I have seen Martins application (but have not tried it). I wanted something "simpler", ie. I don't need scanned images, I just show the barcodes on the display (from a web-page, pdf or whatever) and then click one each side of the barcode - if I can see the barcode on tmy screen then I can scan it. So I could open a manual or a journal and scroll through the pages and when I see the barcode I just start the application and click my mouse. But yes, basically they do the same thing ..

Cheers,
Thomas
