Frog is an intuitive text extraction tool for the GNOME desktop.

The tool lets you quickly extract non-selectable text from anywhere: videos, PDFs, screencasts, webpages, photos, etc.

It aims to make it easy to extract non-selectable text as easy as taking a screenshot with a built-in snipping tool for Mac.

This is free and open source software.
