any good accessible OCR for linux?

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Hi Ibrahim,

Issuing this command would allow ocr to work in Hebrew.

you may discard the message from Lios as it is just a warning, pressing OK.

I will package aspell-ar an aspell-he in the coming days, then you will 
get spell checking and auto-rotation in Arabic and Hebrew in Lios.

Cheers,
Didier
