In a nutshell, dpScreenOCR can recognize text from the selected screen area, and then can copy it to the clipboard, add it to history, or pass it as an argument to an executable.

[ 0.22 ms ] story [ 8.5 ms ] threadI've been using v1.0.2 for almost over a year. I remember asking about tray icon support when it was already implemented[1]. I have been eagerly waiting for the release since then![2]
Thanks for the awesome, lightweight tool.
