FuzzyORC itself doesn't have a FreeBSD port, but it's just a perl 
script. It depends on gocr for image processing, though, and there is a 
FreeBSD port for that available. Seems to work fine here on FreeBSD-5.4 
Stable.

I have no idea if FuzzyOCR is being considered for inclusion into SA. It 
does take a considerable amount of CPU and memory resources, though. I'm 
running it on a dual PIII-600 system with 512MB RAM and scan times are 
routinely over 2 minutes/message, and a fair amount of swap is always in 
use.
