A new release of it must have just come out. see http://freshmeat.net/releases/135789 I also found directory listings for it at ftp.gnu.org/pub/ocrad and the actual packages, both 0.3 and 0.4 are there. There are also other sites to look at if you do a google search. The brief comment I read said it could be used as a standalone console application or as a backend to other programs. -- Cheryl
