There is something wrong with piping output from import into identify or
convert.
In the following, I am dragging the box around the word "Loading" - each time
the box isn't exactly the same, but it is close enough - not enough to cause the
behavior I am seeing.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/gocr$ import - | identify -
/tmp/magick-XXSFiexS PS 2624x1968 2624x1968+0+0 DirectClass 14.8mb 0.290u 0:02
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/gocr$ import test.miff | identify test.miff
test.miff MIFF 71x29 2624x1968+854+1105 DirectClass 12kb
The problem came up trying to pipe into convert:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/gocr$ import - | convert - pgm:- |gocr -
Eventually I want to get the resulting text such that I can paste it into an
email message. xclip is close, but that "selects" the text, and Thunderbird
doesn't seem to use the "selected" text when you hit Paste or Shift+Ins.
