        kraken is a fork of ocropus intended to rectify a number of issues while
        preserving (mostly) functional equivalence. Its main features are:
        
          - Script detection and multiscript recognition support
          - `Right-to-Left <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-to-left>`_, `BiDi
            <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bi-directional_text>`_, and Top-to-Bottom
            script support
          - `ALTO <https://www.loc.gov/standards/alto/>`_, abbyXML, and hOCR output
          - Word bounding boxes and character cuts
          - `Public repository <https://github.com/mittagessen/kraken-models>`_ of model files
          - Dynamic recognition model architectures and GPU acceleration
          - Clean public API 
        
        Installation
        ============
        
        When using a recent version of pip all dependencies will be installed from
        binary wheel packages, so installing build-essential or your distributions
        equivalent is often unnecessary. kraken only runs on **Linux or Mac OS X**.
        Windows is not supported.
        
        Install the latest 1.0 release through `conda <https://anaconda.org>`_:
        
        ::
        
          $ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mittagessen/kraken/master/environment.yml
          $ conda env create -f environment.yml
        
        or:
        
        ::
        
          $ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mittagessen/kraken/master/environment_cuda.yml
          $ conda env create -f environment_cuda.yml
        
        for CUDA acceleration with the appropriate hardware.
        
        It is also possible to install the same version from pypi:
        
        ::
        
          $ pip install kraken
        
        Finally you'll have to scrounge up a model to do the actual recognition of
        characters. To download the default model for printed English text and place it
        in the kraken directory for the current user:
        
        ::
        
          $ kraken get default
        
        A list of libre models available in the central repository can be retrieved by
        running:
        
        ::
        
          $ kraken list
        
        Quickstart
        ==========
        
        Recognizing text on an image using the default parameters including the
        prerequisite steps of binarization and page segmentation:
        
        ::
        
          $ kraken -i image.tif image.txt binarize segment ocr
        
        To binarize a single image using the nlbin algorithm:
        
        ::
        
          $ kraken -i image.tif bw.png binarize
        
        To segment a binarized image into reading-order sorted lines:
        
        ::
        
          $ kraken -i bw.png lines.json segment
        
        To OCR a binarized image using the default RNN and the previously generated
        page segmentation:
        
        ::
        
          $ kraken -i bw.png image.txt ocr --lines lines.json
        
        All subcommands and options are documented. Use the ``help`` option to get more
        information.
