There are parts of the NCR driver, that could be greatly simplified, if the GENERIC driver offered suitable support. I intend (and have prepared) significant changes to the NCR driver code (loading of the NCR SCRIPT, error handling and multi byte messages). Additional functionality in the generic code could simplify some parts of the NCR driver.
