any good accessible OCR for linux?

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Hi Ibrahim,

this command:
most /var/log/packages/tesseract-data-4.0.0-x86_64-2slint
shows that I have packaged trained data for Arabic and all Latin scripts 
among others but not Hebrew so far. If you want it I can add it.

Cheers,
Didier
