This bug effects my speedy-ocr bash script for Vinux (vinux.org.uk). This script helps the blind scan and recognize text. For most blind users, even placing the letter on the scanner face down and in the right direction is half the battle and not normally a consideration for the sighted. My script currenttly attempts to determine when this happens and informs the user. The Ubuntu cuneiform 0.7 package exits with this strange error message, I watch for the exact message. Note, it will also exit with this message if a regular photo is scanned that has no text. The cuneiform 1.0 tarball does not behave this way. It simply returns a blank page. I figured this was the desired fix for this bug. My script simply checks the output file with 'wc' to check and report the word count. Is this the expected vehavior?
Don Marang There is just so much stuff in the world that, to me, is devoid of any real substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure that I am working on things that matter.
