I just downloaded gocr & fed it a page of the UTP.

IT WORKED. And on a PPC machine no less.

I am just awestruck: I have OCR on my computer, I didn't have
to spend a pile of cash to get it, and I don't have to worry
about the BSA software Gestapo breaking my door down over it.

Hm, tomorrow afternoon I'll set up a script to OCR an entire
directory & give this G3 something to do overnight. And see
if I can't get it to compile on OS X as well. :-)

BTW, Colin, would you consider gzip'ing Chapter 4 my way?
