normcap — capture text and barcodes from screen selection 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

normcap

Yep. That's it. That's the whole vibe. Just run it, no flags, no drama ✨

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Okay so picture this: NormCap is an OCR-powered screen capture tool that pulls text, barcodes, and QR codes out of any region you select on the screen. You drag a lil box, it does its little magic, and boom 💥

The recognised content is automatically copied to the clipboard — and it does that without saving any image. Not a single screenshot left behind. Clean. Iconic. No crumbs 🫶

Under the hood it uses Tesseract for text recognition, plus an integrated decoder for barcodes and QR codes.

💀 The best part: everything happens locally. No internet connection is needed, and no logs are kept. Your data stays in your lane, periodt.

🧚 GNOME bestie check 🧚

Heads up if you're on GNOME: the system tray icon may not appear by default 😭 No stress tho — just install the package gnome-shell-extension-appindicator and it'll show up. Slay 💅
