I want to quickly identify potential mistakes created by OCR software. Where can I find a list of all Chinese characters that visually look very similar and might often be confused?

A friend and I have started to collect a list of characters easy to misread by language learners: http://code.google.com/p/eclectus/source/browse/trunk/libeclectus/data/similarcharacters.csv |

I don't know of anything exactly like that, but you can find characters with similar structure at zhongwen.com, and you can see the structural decomposition of characters at Wikimedia Commons. |
