[fprint] using API

[collectif Fossile]

Hi again 
and thank you for your fast previous contributions and maintaining this hole project active !
 
 
This question may be studpid too, but : does anyone know if the API instructions listed in the function documentation is only aimed at creating new software, or if ever it could be used to give libfprint some instructions in any command line ?
 
I wonder if we could actually automate (?) some basic functions that are already used in Fprintdemo (device and driver recognition, capturing an image when a finger is detected, detecting minutiae, binarizing and saving the image).
 
The whole idea is to write a script that would use fingerdetection to launch a patch in pure data or max/msp and use scanned prints at the basic material for a graphical treatment. I'm mainly interested in the "intelligent" scanning and editing functions that are provided in libfprint.
 
I've no programming skills (even if some friends of mine might help), so I wonder if this would be a big task. 
 
thanks for advices
