I made a small Windows utility that I find useful for povray.
If you add it on to your tool menu, it will bring up the Window's
colour palette and allow you to select a colour.  It then puts
your colour on the clipboard in the form of:

rgb<0.2509,0.5019,0.5019>

so you can paste it into your code.

As an added plus, it was written in assembler, so the file size is only
891 bytes zipped :)

Bug reports are always welcome in an odd sort of way.

    Also, could you make it remember the last
    colour you selected?  (A history would be even
    better!)

    Not meaning to sound ungrateful... :-)

I have found an interesting color picker, that, unlike most others, is 
able to export RGB float values, among a lot of other formats.
It is quite small, and even comes with a DLL and a .lib file to integrate 
it to other applications. Maybe it could be a good idea for a GUI 
extension, it that's what I think it is...
