Hey, this isn't my idea but I wish someone would do it. Only useful to programmers or web developers, but hey..
A little tray-app (or something) that works like this:
- You select text representing a color in a text editor (i.e. something like #ff00ff, (1.0,0.0,1.0), (255,0,255) etc..
- You hit the tray app or some magic key combination and it sends a Copy message to the window, pops up a nice modern color editor, you edit the color, then you hit "Apply" and it sends a paste message with the new color formatted in the same way as the old one.
This would allow gui color editing in any text field with almost any program, and sharing of palettes between programs that use different representations.
This is totally doable in X11 or Windows.
