I took a screen snapshot (ksnapshot) of a terminal window
with some text in it. I wasn't able to get the text to be copied
to the clipboard for pasting into an editor window.
Now, I have a record of the text, in an image, and I can go back
and review it for testing/debugging/etc.
My question: How do I NOW get the text from the image?
It's a .jpg (snapshot2.jpg). I tried GIMP, but the learning
curve is way too long and steep. What is a way to get the
text out of the image file?
Thanks for any short, simple solution you might know.
