Wrapper around scanimage(1) and friends when nothing better exists (moved to SourceHut)

• 👋 Hi, I’m Alexander
• 👀 Mostly the stuff here is utilities to make life easier on Unix-like systems. Most of the really interesting (scientific) code I'm not able to share publically. If you have a good reason I can however give you read access individually.
• About that weird handle, it's just one of the entangling gates I spend my time on, e.g. for two qubits:

$$\sqrt{\mathrm{iSWAP}} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\\ 0 & \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} & \frac{i}{\sqrt{2}} & 0 \\\ 0 & \frac{i}{\sqrt{2}} & \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} & 0 \\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix}$$

• ❗️ 2024-05-01: I have moved most of my repos over to SourceHut but for the purposes of collaborating/contributing I keep this account around.
