CLI or minimal app that fronts leptonica

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hey all,
I'm looking at different image processing solutions to tackle document imaging 
problems.  This library seems of high quality and has the potential to handle 
the scenarios usually needed for document imaging (deskew, despeckle, text 
orientation-based auto-rotate, halftone removal, etc).

I see it is used in larger solutions, such as ocropus/tesseract, but is there a 
command-line interface (CLI) or other minimal application to help apply this 
library towards the specific purpose image processing from a user point of view 
opposed to programmatic only?

Thanks!

It's trivial to write little programs to do something.  Some of the 
approximately 200 programs in the prog/ directory carry out a simple task.

See, for example, printsplitimage.c or convertfilestopdf.c.

Is there any CLI wrappers for Leptonica? Tesseract has a nice CLI that you can 
work without messing with C. I need something similar for Leptonica to 
demonstrate it to students.

leptonica has nearly 2500 callable (nonstatic) functions.

Take a look at the approx. 200 programs in the prog directory.  You can make 
some nice demos by just running a few of them.

Look at the README.html to decide if you want to use automake or the static 
makefiles.  (I find the latter to be easier in development and testing mode.)
