Just post your Google email/whatever so we can quickly contact each other using Hangouts.

Mine is [email protected].

Does anyone want to set aside one of the next few days so were all working/collabing on this at the same time?

Just a 'thread' if you will for chat tonight, if any of use are working.

Works, if you pull it from github now, when building it to your local machine, make sure you follow these directions:

To download the English language files for Tesseract and copy them to your
device's external storage, run the following commands in the terminal:

cd
curl -O http://tesseract-ocr.googlecode.com/files/tesseract-ocr-3.02.eng.tar.gz
tar -zxvf tesseract-ocr-3.02.eng.tar.gz
rm -f tesseract-ocr-3.02.eng.tar.gz
mkdir data
mv tesseract-ocr data/tesseract
adb push data/ /sdcard/
adb shell sync

Or you can manually copy the files into your tessdata folder. I will probably add some logic into the app to copy these files automatically eventually.

Now we just have to add a sqlite database/table, and we can replace the text the app generates with a results table.

If you pull the current project, there will be some issues between jnim ndk, and Android Studio. Currently working on this.
