Release notes for xoris 0.1b
============================

This 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.

INSTALL
-------

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
