Thanks for this!!

I just realized I can use the following command to OCR a bitmap in the clipboard and put the text back into the clipboard.

xclip -out -selection clipboard -t image/bmp
| tesseract stdin stdout -l eng
| xclip -in -selection clipboard

This works in my linux VM (in Virtualbox on my work laptop) using bi-directional shared clipboard without touching my Windows software.

Mind blown!!

True, I don’t like paying money to Amazon, but if you are already paying the fee anyway . . .

Do Linux From Scratch! You will learn a lot. I credit LFS with getting me comfortable with the linux command line.

But don’t use it as your daily use linux.

Thanks, another to add to my games backlog. It does look interesting though!
