# Ozymandias

Causes text to decay by converting a text file to an image, then OCRing the image back to a text file. Only text files are saved.

## Setup for OSX:
``` bash
brew install tesseract
brew install imagemagick
```

To use, just run
``` bash
./the_decay_of_that_colossal_wreck.sh
```

## Options:
`-i`: Specify the number of iteration; the default is `10`.

`-f`: Take a text file as input

`-t`: Take a string as input

If no input text is specified, the poem _Ozymandias_ by Percy Shelley is used.

## Example commands:
```bash
# Convert the text of Ozymandias 100 times
./the_decay_of_that_colossal_wreck -i 100

# Use a file as input
./the_decay_of_that_colossal_wreck -f path/to/filename.txt

# A string as input, iterating 5 times
./the_decay_of_that_colossal_wreck -t "Mouse Reeve" -i 5
```

## Example output:

The original poem:

```
Ozymandias, by Percy Shelley

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert... near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed:

And on the pedestal these words appear:
'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
```

The poem after 5 iterations:
```
