# In disk
julia> run_tesseract(img_path, "/tmp/res.txt", psm=3, oem=1)
# In memory
julia> img = Images.load(img_path);
julia> res_text = run_tesseract(img, psm=3, oem=1);
julia> println(strip(res_text));

Testing

In a Julia session, run Pkg.test("OCReract", coverage=true), or just run julia --code-coverage=all --inline=no test/runtests.jl.
