PyTesser :

PyTesser is an Optical Character Recognition module for Python. It takes as input an image or image file and outputs a string.
PyTesser uses the Tesseract OCR engine, converting images to an accepted format and calling the Tesseract executable as an external script. A Windows executable is provided along with the Python scripts. The scripts should work in other operating systems as well.

Hackersh 0.1 Release Announcement

I am pleased to announce the Official 0.1 launch of Hackersh ("Hacker Shell") - a shell (command interpreter) written in Python with built-in security commands, and out of the box wrappers for various security tools. It uses Pythonect as its scripting engine. Since it's the first release of Hackersh, I'd like to take this opportunity to explain how it works and why you should be using it.

Hackersh is an interactive console for security research and testing. It uses Pythonect as its scripting language. Pythonect is a new, experimental, general-purpose high-level dataflow programming language based on Python. It aims to combine the intuitive feel of shell scripting (and all of its perks like implicit parallelism) with the flexibility and agility of Python. The combination of the two makes:

1	"http://localhost" -> url -> nmap -> w3af -> print
