FluffyGoggles

A Python app for taking a screenshot, reading the text with OCR, and copying the text to the clipboard. And it's free.

The name was randomly generated.

Installation

To install with pip, run:

pip install fluffygoggles

Quickstart Guide

Run this program with:

python -m fluffygoggles

This will take a screenshot, run OCR on it (with pytesseract), and copy the recognized text to the clipboard. It will also open up a "result text" window that looks like Notepad.

You can also run:

python -m fluffygoggles someimage.png

...to run the program on an image file instead of a screenshot.

You can add the -q or --quiet argument to suppress the output and result text window.
