- Hi,
-
- I administer a few workstations running X. Yesterday
- a new user asked my about changing the colors I had
- set as the defaults for xterm. I showed him rgb.txt
- to give him all of the names of colors, and he asked
- it there was a program to quickly view these colors.
-
- Is there?
-
- I know about xfontsel and it seems like it would be
- nice to have some program to view (or even create and
- then see the rgb values for) colors. Even better if
- it would let one see how one color text looks on top
- of a different color background.
