Seven Segment Optical Character Recognition or ssocr for short is a
|
|
program to recognize digits of a seven segment display. An image of one
|
|
row of digits is used for input and the recognized number is written
|
|
to the standard output. The program runs on GNU/Linux (some GNU/Linux
|
|
distributions provide an ssocr package), FreeBSD (available as a port
|
|
as well), Mac OS X (Homebrew can be used to install the library Imlib2,
|
|
used by ssocr), and even on Windows (using Cygwin). ssocr should work
|
|
on any UNIX-like or POSIX compatible operating system.
|
|
|
|
Unless ssocr is installed via some packaging system, e.g. from a GNU/Linux
|
|
distribution, it is distributed in source form and needs to be built
|
|
before it can be used. See the INSTALL file for instructions on how to
|
|
build ssocr.
|
|
|
|
A manual for ssocr is available in the form of a man page named ssocr.1,
|
|
you can read it using "make ssocr.1 && man ./ssocr.1" (without the
|
|
quotes).
|
|
|
|
You can get the current ssocr version from the official ssocr website:
|
|
http://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~auerswal/ssocr/
|
|
(Links to ssocr should point to the official website, not to a convenience
|
|
copy of the development repository, e.g. on GitHub.)

I am usually quicker to reply to emails than to GitHub issues.
