xoris is an uncomplicated util that helps (me) to easy insert (while editing CSS-files) a rgb-color value of any part of the screen into the editor.

The philosophy of xoris is simple - it dumps color to stdout. Program can do this in three variants:

1. hex (#b0958e);
2. string of rgb numbers (229 229 229);
3. abstract name (gray90).

To get such enumerated color specifications, click: Button1, Ctrl+Button1, Shift+Button1 correspondingly.

Don't forget to type 'xoris -h' for additional help.

xoris was tested on 24-dept display only.

Requirements:
X Window
ANSI C compiler
imake

Installation:

To compile type:

% xmkmf
% make

To install type (as root): make install

For quick test how it works type:

% xoris | xmessage -file -

For a more convenience way try such script:

#!/bin/sh

while true
do
xoris | xmessage -buttons 'Grab,Quit' -nearmouse
-xrm '*iconName:xoris output'
-title 'xoris output'
-geometry 180x65
-file -
[ $? -eq 102 ] && exit
done
