They have a demo of OCR Shop on the web site and I was thinking of
downloading it.  What specifically makes it only run on Redhat?  Is it
only in RPM format?  Otherwise, I don't see why it shouldn't run in any
distro, but not being open source, we'll never know what they wrote it in
nor what it depends on.
