Seven Segment Optical Character Recognition or ssocr for short is a program to recognize digits of a seven segment display. An image of one row of digits is used for input and the recognized number is written to the standard output. The program runs on GNU/Linux (some GNU/Linux distributions provide an ssocr package), FreeBSD (available as a port as well), Mac OS X (Homebrew can be used to install the library Imlib2, used by ssocr), and even on Windows (using Cygwin). ssocr should work on any UNIX-like or POSIX compatible operating system.
Unless ssocr is installed via some packaging system, e.g. from a GNU/Linux distribution, it is distributed in source form and needs to be built before it can be used. See the INSTALL file for instructions on how to build ssocr.
A manual for ssocr is available in the form of a man page named ssocr.1, you can read it using "make ssocr.1 && man ./ssocr.1" (without the quotes).
You can get the current ssocr version from the official ssocr website: http://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~auerswal/ssocr/ (Links to ssocr should point to the official website, not to a convenience copy of the development repository, e.g. on GitHub.)
I am usually quicker to reply to emails than to GitHub issues. But increasingly Google blocks emails sent by me, so if you do not receive an answer from me, consider opening a GitHub issue. Perhaps your mail provider does not allow you to read my solutions to your ssocr problems. Especially if you are using an @gmail.com address, and you do not receive an answer to an email, it is most likely that Google blocked that answer. In that case, you can either follow up with a GitHub issue or use a better email provider than Google.
