Description

Hello.

Would it be possible to add new keywords for extracting text only from selected region of the screen?
To do it we should also somehow set coordinates of e.g. some text box that we would like OCR. For this it would be needed to Get Image Coordinates keyword.
In general I find current list of keywords in SikuliLibrary quite limited compared to python/jython list of functions. http://doc.sikuli.org/region.html#Region.text
Are there any plans for bring more core Sikuli functionality as keywords to RF-SikuliLibrary?

Research direction

Start with the Sikuli Region.text documentation linked in the issue and review the current SikuliLibrary keyword set. Define the scope for extracting text from a selected screen region and obtaining image coordinates, then determine how those keywords should be exposed and tested in Robot Framework; the issue is complete when both capabilities are available and covered by suitable tests.
