While cellwriter is long dead, it is still fairly working.
It just requires you to use X11 session and programs. In some distribution (especially on distributions where maintainers patch cellwriter) it might eve somewhat work under Wayland sessions. Ad, also, it requires you to manually build your own database for each individual symbol. Program does not come with ready-to-be-used set of symbols.
As for recognition quality, especially for multi-language with different writing set (e.g. Cyrillic and Latin) scenarios, and general usability... Uh, not that great, even when program does work.
(I, as original poster, also was looking for a solution, but to this day never found one. This is one of things where Linux suck ass.)
