It appears to be as simple as tesseract <infile><outfile>. Possibly could even pipe (or tee) the screenshot straight into that and save both an image and a text file in a single command line.
It is much better to search using ElasticSearch or Sphinx. Grep is super slow, non indexed and can’t do natural language full text searches. It’s pretty much useless for any real world text search you’d want from OCRed content. And all these better tools are free and open source, so really a no brainer.
