NAME

       hocr - command line Hebrew OCR tool

       example  programs for libhocr, a library that help use Hebrew character
       recognition.

SYNOPSIS

       hocr [OPTION] [-i] [pnm file]

DESCRIPTION

       hocr is an optical character recognition program that can be used  from

       utf-8 Hebrew text to stdout. Input pbm file must be a binary black  and
       white pnm file (magic "P4/5").  If the pnm file is a single dash (or no
       file given), PNM data is read from stdin.
