<i>&gt;&gt;&gt; Wolfgang Goeller &lt;<a href="mailto:wgoeller@active.ch">wgoeller@active.ch</a>&gt; seems to think that:</i><br>
<i>&gt;&gt; There is a free OCR program called Xocr written by Matrin Bauer, I don't think</i><br>
<i>&gt;&gt; it has been maitained for while but it is out there somewhere, and certianly</i><br>
<i>&gt;&gt; anyone workign on a GNU-OCR program should go find it.</i><br>
<i>&gt;</i><br>
<i>&gt;Well, this Xocr is a nice effort and shows some techniques.</i><br>
<i>&gt;But - to speak positive - it reads about 10% of a good printout</i><br>
<i>&gt;correct.</i><br>
[ ... ]<br>
<p>
I tried Xocr, but it always crashed on me. Oh well. I then learned<br>
about SOCR, which I'm surprised no one has mentioned yet. It's<br>
homepage is <a href="http://www.socr.org">http://www.socr.org</a>. I haven't tried it lately, but the<br>
latest NEWS was from July 14th 1998. There is a nice screenshot of a<br>
KDE OCR program too. (It doesn't appear to recognize anything yet,<br>
though.) It looks quite impressive, and my previous conversations<br>
with the author were quite encouraging.<br>
