Quick color selection

Friday, September 22, 2006 ★ 23:05 ★ Categories Gnome, Programming

Some time ago, I wrote a simple script to easily pick a font. I’ve adapted that script to be usable as a simple color picker.

The color name is copied to the clipboard and printed to stdout by default. Command line switches are provided to disable copying or printing.

Select color

Save the file into a directory that is in your $PATH and chmod +x it to use it. Of course you should have PyGTK installed, but this is the default on most distributions.
