> Another disaster in the making....doesn't even work with written text You mean handwritten or computer-readable text? The former can be a bear, but the latter is far easier, and an intermediary step in either handwritten or speech translation (it's all got to be reduced to dictionary words), so dealing with just (computer-readable) text is the simplest step of the translation process.
