I was about to post a long reply to this thread, but I envisioned a long argument with the O.P.

But after looking at that thread, I really think the unix.com policy should be to not help students with homework, no matter how "stuck" they say they are or how far along they appear to be. I know some past posts involved students posting what they had completed so far and you could tell they really were making every effort and were stuck. But I don't think their teachers would be happy if they could come to unix.com and have someone here finish their assignment for them, no matter how close they are. If the student is almost there, then I believe the teacher would much rather the student come to them so s/he can decide how and how much to help the student.

It's true they can still search unix.com and the rest of the Internet looking for answers, but at least they'll have to be critical about what they find and there's no one consciously just handing it to them..

AMC-annote - completed answer sheets annotation after marking for AMC multiple choice exams. SYNOPSIS
auto-multiple-choice annote --projet project-dir --data project-data-dir --fich-assoc assoc.xml [annotation options...] DESCRIPTION
The AMC-annote.pl command annotates papers scans with scores for all questions, global score and mark, resulting in JPEG files (one for each page). --projet project-dir sets the project directory. --data project-data-dir gives the directory where data files are (see for example AMC-prepare(1)). --cr project-cr-dir sets the project reports directory, where to find data capture reports prepared by AMC-analyse(1), and where to output annotated scans. Default value is project-dir/cr. --fich-noms students-list.csv sets the students list file name. --noms-encodage encoding selects an encoding for file students-list.csv (default is utf-8). --qualite qual sets JPEG quality for output files. Default value is 65. --taille-max maxsize sets the maximal size for output files (in the format widthxheight, in pixels). Default value is 1000x1500. --pointsize-nl lines sets the size of texts requiring that with this size, the number of text lines that fits on the page height must be lines. Default value is 60. --verdict header sets the text header to be printed on each first page of the students copies. This text may contain CR characters for multi-line headers. Some sequences are substituted in it: %S is replaced by the student total score. %M is replaced by the maximum total score. %s is replaced by the student mark. %m is replaced by the maximum mark. %(ID) is replaced by the student's name. %(COL) is replaced by the value of column COL in the students list for the curent student. --ch-sign nc Sets the number nc of significant digits to use when printing global mark. --symbols symbols-definition defines how boxes will be annotated. symbols-definition is a comma separated list of H-A:shape:colour constructs, where H is 0 or 1 depending on wether the box has to be checked or not, A is 0 or 1 depending on wether the box is actually checked or not, shape is one of none, circle, mark, box and coulour is a colour (name or #RGB, see ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick documentation for details). Default value is "0-0:none,0-1:circle:red,1-0:mark:red,1-1:mark:blue". --position pos sets the position of individual questions scores. pos may be 'none' (do dot write individual scores), 'marge' (write scores in the margin) or 'case' (write scores at the left of the left-most box for the question. --ecart dx sets the horizontal space to let between individual question score and the leftmost box when --position case is used. --ecart-marge x sets the x position for individual questions scores when written in the margin (in em units). --line-width lw sets the line width for symbols drwan on the scans (in pixels). Default value is 2. --indicatives bool say if indicative questions are to be annotated (use 1 for a true value; default is false). --debug file.log gives a file to fill with debugging information.
