   For those of you who expressed interest in an Optical Character
  Recognition package, all of my code is now on
  polyslo.csc.calpoly.edu in the pub/ocr/ sub-directory of the 
  anonymous ftp directory. There is a readme file that describes the
  three make files provided. The full program was originally coded to
  take a text image in PGM format and convert it to ascii text.
  ALong the way, it uses binarization,blobifying,hough transforms,and
  histogram normalization to overcome some of the difficulties, such as
  a scanned page of other than 0 degrees rotation from vertical.
   One of the makefiles creates an interactive program which will give you
  access to using the individual functions, such as hough transforms and
  binarizing, that might be useful outside of a character recognition
  package. Ill be on vacation for the next week, so any mail will be 
  answered as soon as i return. Good luck.
