The accuracy of GOCR is very high and it doesn't require any learning.

GOCR is ok, certainly much better than GNU Ocrad, but I've had much better results with Tesseract.

GOCR is simple enough to install from your distro's repository and wrap into a script without fuss though. Tesseract is wildly more complicated to get started with.

If you're doing real time street sign recognition or involved with a book scanning and archival startup, investigate Tesseract for sure. But even then you'll probably want to prototype with gocr first.
