COLOUR PICKER
Farge
Version: 1.0.5 Web: https://github. com/sdushantha/farge
We love screen-grabbing software in Linux. There’s a plentiful supply to choose from, and most advanced desktop environments carry their own tools for taking and managing screen-grabs. People involved in web design and artwork creation often use such tools for extracting colour information. So, if the final goal is just a colour picker and your DE isn’t Plasma (which has a widget for that), then you may find Farge extremely useful. The project’s description features a nice animation, which shows the author using some sort of minimalist desktop with a thin panel and a tiling window manager. With such starting conditions, Farge solves a problem of ‘picking’ a colour from any part of the screen.
