I must admit I have no clue what this is supposed to do and I read the thread three times. 😕

I just posted to the forum with a detailed walk-through of how to use it. I'm just not following what a couple of the parameters do.

As nobody voted yet, I've marked it as a candidate for the sack. I'll leave it in this state for a few weeks - if there's no reaction, I'll consider this item as rejected

It seems to be OCR software, with a part in mcode. If this is to be added it would be under scripts -> ?
Math, Graphics? or its own category "Text"?

I think I understand it a bit better now, so could be included even though the documentation could be better people seem to find it useful. You can define an image to look for "in text" so you don't need an image for your ImageSearch but a block of text. (something like that)

Yeah... It is a little bit confusing given how it's being presented.
