Image recognition tool

[Sannyasin Sivakatirswami]

Namaste, Vikram:

right:

On mouseup
   lock screen
   answer file "choose the first image"
   set the filename of image img1 to it
   answer file "choose the second image"
   set the filename of image img2 to it
if md5Digest(the imagedata of image img1) = md5Digest(the imagedata of 
image img2) then answer "Match!"

--  if (the imagedata of image img1) = (the imagedata of image img2) 
then answer "Match!"

end mouseUp

the latter two options return the same result. But one is not sure how 
using the md5Digest at this point gets us anywhere faster.. the 
overhead of loading the images into the cards is there already. I could 
see possibly storing the md5Digest of all the images in a directory in 
advance in a separate file (array) and then checking incoming images 
against that instead of loading each of 500 images in the archive for 
each incoming image....
