I have used a barcode numerous times. Same setup. The scanner just
outputs text/numbers. I remember that there were a few python scripts
out there that I used in order to query imdb and create xml files out
of that but I can no longer remember the name. Should be easy enough
to write though.

In ~2001 I setup a system for a customer which used a bar code scanner
which has a box that was sandwiched between the keyboard and computer's
keyboard port.

A barcode which was scanned was then 'typed' into the system from the
scanner's keyboard emulator. No extra software required.
