Thanks for the script!

I realize that it wasn't the point of our mail, and that you are running
in *nix, but I've been in this exact situation several times in the past
and now I just have this page bookmarked for such cases on Windows
machines:

http://annystudio.com/software/colorpicker/

It is a good and functional colour picker for sure and has some nice
other features, but the best part is that it is a standalone 400 kB
application that doesn't need to be installed.  Nice and tidy... and I
like tidy.
 
Not quite on-topic for a Wing list, but since colour-picking was brought
up I figured I'd share the wealth.  Being a Wing/python list I assume
other people also appreciate tidy code/applications.
