I'm facing some problems with a barcode scanner from Cygnal Inc, model Sweda SL-20. Info from lsusb -v:
If I use the scanner on Windows or Linux default programs, no problem decoding the barcodes.
But I have a POS application that when I scan a barcode seems to be too fast for the application.
I used the manual barcode codes to setup the device, but no effect.
If I scan to gedit, nano, terminal, firefox, rdp client, etc, everything works, but in this particular application doesn't. I tried to contact the supplier, but they said that the device isn't certified by them, so no support at all.
Searching on google, I found several samples codes to simulate I want, I found bash script, python c++.
What I need is a way to intercept the input device buffer and resend the input with a bigger delay between each char.
I tried to use stdbuf, but it has not effect. It already has input mode to LINE BUFFER. I'm searcing about it, but if you have any sample code to provide, it'll help me a lot.

Hey guys..
What is the best tool that can be used on Linux for IP scanning tool that can bring ping status, hostname, and any other open service. I wish I can find a tool like "The Dude" from Mikrotik, but that works only under Windows.
