Rust library and CLI tool for OCR (extracting text from images)
This tool helps you quickly extract text from a wide variety of images, including scanned documents, photos, or screenshots, with minimal setup. You provide an image file or one copied to your clipboard, and it outputs the extracted text, which can be saved to a file or viewed directly. Anyone who needs to convert visual information containing Latin alphabet text into editable text, like researchers or data entry specialists, will find this useful.

Use this if you need a straightforward way to pull text from images and want a tool that handles diverse image types without extensive pre-processing.
Not ideal if you require highly accurate OCR for mission-critical tasks or need to process images containing non-Latin alphabets, as it's still in early preview and only supports Latin text.
