I've just released TextShot, a *free* macOS app that makes copying text from images as easy as taking a screenshot
I love using macOCR it is a command line tool though, but I bind it to a keyboard shortcut using BetterTouchTool, although you could also use Raycast, Alfred, etc to run it

Ask HN: Tools you have made for yourself?
I wrote a free Mac app to OCR any text on screen[1].
macOCR is a command line app that enables you to turn any text on your screen into text on your clipboard. When you envoke the ocr command, a "screen capture" like cursor is shown. Any text within the bounds will be converted to text.
You could invoke the app using the likes of Alfred.app, LaunchBar, Hammerspoon, Quicksilver, Raycast etc.

Ask HN: Any tool for managing large and variable command lines?
In addition, I think bash's `operate-and-get-next` can be very helpful. When you go back through your shell history, you can hit Ctrl+o instead of enter and it will execute the command then put the next one in your history on the command line, and keep track of where you are in your history. This way, you can rerun a bunch of commands by going to the first one and Ctrl+o till you are done. And you can edit those commands and hit Ctrl+o and still go to the next previously run command.
Note: fzf's history search feature breaks this. https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/issues/2399

So You Think You Know Git – Git Tips and Tricks by Scott Chacon
Those are the most used aliases in my gitconfig.
"git fza" shows a list of modified/new files in an fzf window, and you can select each file with tab plus arrow keys. When you hit enter, those files are fed into "git add". Needs fzf: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf
"git gone" removes local branches that don't exist on the remote.
"git root" prints out the root of the repo. You can alias it to "cd $(git root)", and zip back to the repo root from a deep directory structure. This one is less useful now for me since I started using zoxide to jump around. https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide

Which command did you run 1731 days ago?

The fzf search syntax can help, if you become familiar with it. It is also supported in atuin [2].

Z – Jump Around
You call it with `n` and get an interactive fuzzy search for your directories. If you do `n ` instead, it’ll start the find with `` already filled in (and if there’s only one match, jump to it directly). The `ls` is optional but I find that I like having the contents visible as soon as I change a directory.
I’m also including iCloud Drive but excluding the Library directory as that is too noisy. I have a separate `nl` function which searches just inside `~/Library` for when I need it, as well as other specialised `n` functions that search inside specific places that I need a lot.

Fish shell 3.7.0: last release branch before the full Rust rewrite
I do find the history pager stuff interesting, but ultimately not of tremendous use for me. I rebound all my history search stuff to use fzf[1] (via a fish plugin for such[2]), and so haven't been aware of the issues
