Deskew is a command line tool for deskewing scanned text documents. It uses Hough transform to detect "text lines" in the image. As an output, you get an image rotated so that the lines are horizontal.

Proposed enhancement: stdin/stdout #22

For a better integration in automated workflows, it would be nice to have input from stdin and output to stdout. Several tools could then be piped together without the need to explicitly create files on disk. This is available in ImageMagick and Ghostscript, for example. Having it in Deskew would be great.
