Calibre uses tesseract and both come on slint out of the box. In calibre
there is a script part of its name is convert and this is what could be
passed files to convert to text. I'm not on a slint system and won't be
for a while so can't be more specific than that. Hardware problems over
here and when I can get to a post office I've had an offer from David Ring
to send me some useable slint media and a slint installer once he gets a
couple flash drives I have. If all of that works, I'll be able to replace
debian bookworm with slint on this system.

Subject: [slint] Re: Lios?
Hello Michael and All,
lios is a graphical application accessible using Orca.
When you type (pressing Alt+F2 or in a graphical terminal) lios fisrt
displays a
harmless warning in a window about a non installed dictionary. Just press
Enter and lios will start. The documentation is in /usr/doc/lios-git3b857a8/
not /usr/doc/lios, which should not exist as we adopt the Slackware naming
scheme for the documentation: /usr/doc/<package name>-<package version, I will
fix this packaging issue.
As an aside I see that there is a new repository:
https://github.com/zendalona/lios
Which brings a commit:
https://github.com/zendalona/lios/commit/565afb783dc50d4ec7c9d1d6caf486c26f47d1fe
that seems to adapt lios to the (not so) new layout of the Orca preferences
GUI
to select the Person in the Voice tab.
@Chrys: you may want to check this and adapt the PKGBUILD in the AUR
accordingly
(and don't worry, we also ship "your" ocrdesktop in Slint, lol).
Cheers,
Didier

Hello list.===============================================================================
There is an installed paackage called lios. I think it's a command-line
interface to do OCR from image files or a scanner.
It's a python script and isn't working properly from the cammand line. I
believe it's having trouble using the installed python package.
Fortunately my scanner is supported in sane, and I'd really like to try
lios.
All that's in
/usr/doc/lios is a copyright file.
Any help?
Thanks.
