OpenALPR includes a command line utility. Simply typing "alpr [image file path]" is enough to get started recognizing license plate images.
For example, the following output is created by analyzing this image:
![Plate Image](http://www.openalpr.com/images/demoscreenshots/plate3.png "Input image")
The library is told that this is a Missouri (MO) license plate which validates the plate letters against a regional template.
```

Update the src/CMakeLists.txt file in the OpenALPR project. Update the following lines to match the directories of your libraries on your system:
* SET(OpenCV_DIR "../libraries/opencv/")
* SET(Tesseract_DIR "/home/mhill/projects/alpr/libraries/tesseract-ocr")
- SET(OpenCV_DIR "../libraries/opencv/")
- SET(Tesseract_DIR "/home/mhill/projects/alpr/libraries/tesseract-ocr")
Finally, in the src directory, execute the following commands:
* cmake ./
* make
- cmake ./
- make
If all went well, there should be an executable named *alpr* along with *libopenalpr.a* that can be linked into your project.
