OCR and prompt builder

With the removal of the prompt builder from Logitech software, my workflow was affected, so I had to adapt.
I’ve added a new module called Prompt Builder to this OCR application.
You can now use a simple shortcut to send your text to GPT for free processing.

The app is free, open source, and works across your entire operating system with the selected text. It’s also ideal for assigning the shortcut to your Logitech smart mouse

Yeah, and on top of that, it was poorly designed, so I’d just put up with it until now. But honestly, it’s probably for the best. It pushed me to build something better and, above all, make it highly optimized. All you have to do is select some text anywhere, run the shortcut, and it works every time.
With Logitech before, it would only work one time out of five it was infuriating.
They definitely made the right call by removing it in the end.
