Hex Color Picker Plugin for Mac OS X

August 11th 2008

Today, I was amazed yet again by the flexibility of Mac OS X. I was transitioning the color scheme from my text editor to the syntax highlighter for the blog and needed to convert the RGB values to Hex. The first couple I did manually, but realized there must be a utility out there that would do that for me. I found this nice little Hex Color picker.

What really amazed me was how easily extensible the Mac system color was. I dropped the plugin file in a folder, restarted my text editor and it was there. No installer. No registry settings. Pretty amazing.
