There is a good library for generating barcodes called "Code-Master".  We've
been using it with windows and on the console for creating 3-of-9 codes,
but it can create almost every major code there is.  Nice set of routines.
I think it cost us $300 for the source to the library, but it would be $100 or
so for just the libraries.

It generates the codes into an internal memory block, and you fwrite() them to
the printer, or a file.  It can also be accessed from languages other than C.
