Headless browser + OCR ... how hard can it be?!
- philjackson 6y agoAre you being sarcastic? Very hard probably.
- peteretep 6y agoI’m ... not sure. There’s a limit to how complicated emails are in 99% of non-spam HTML emails, right? You’re working with a limited subset of HTML meant to be reflowed to small screens pretty easily, and the task here is to extract text content into a form that can then be shown in a terminal. I would — at the very least — think it was worth giving a go
