In fact, I wrote a simple script some 10yrs. ago using Image::Magick to turn an image (gif,jpg,png) into a pure text version of the original, color, and all. It does the entire operation within memory.

I'd have offered a coded solution/correction. But the OP couldn't be bothered to post theirs.

--Chris

#!/usr/bin/perl -Tw
use Perl::Always or die;
my $perl_version = (5.12.5);
print $perl_version;

So, you troll what you claim is a low quality post, with a low quality answer, but don't suggest to OP to improve their question? Who are you claiming to help here?

I felt the 1st reply to the OP had already covered the need to improve the post quality, quite adequately.

Speaking of Troll; seems your tart insertions pretty much define (Troll||Troll bait).

#!/usr/bin/perl -Tw
use Perl::Always or die;
my $perl_version = (5.12.5);
print $perl_version;
