A little OT, but it is actually being used in a production software
package called Teleform from Cardiff software. Teleform is an OCR
program which you use to create forms, OCR them from fax or scan, and
then store the information in a database. BTrieve is used to store the
forms themselves, while the data is stored in an ODBC database.
