With all of the interest in barcodes being generated by the free
availability of :CueCat barcode scanners at Radio Shack, I thought it
might be a good idea to compile GNU Barcode 0.95 on OS/2.

Source code, libraries and executables for GNU Barcode 0.95 are now
available from:

  http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/apps/graphics/barcode-0_95.zip 

GNU Barcode 0.95 is a FREE barcode printing program that produces
postscript output suitable for use with Ghostscript.  GNU Barcode
supports a wide range of barcode formats including UPC, EAN, ISBN,
Code39, Code128 and others.

The :CueCat is able to process all of these formats assuming your
printer is good enough to render them clearly.  I found that all, but
the tinyest compressed formats work well with :CueCat even when
reading barcodes printed on my ink jet printer.
