A small utility that saves you the time of coding those long, troublesome
'rgb<x,x,x>' statements <g>
Extract the app and DLL, put it on the tools menu if you like, and give it a
try. Don't worry, it doesn't bite ;-)

You Have _NOT_ Been Raytracing To Long if you need a special app to create
a rgb<> statement ...

BTW: can you give some hints, where to extract it from ?

Of course I don't need that. I was planning to expand it eventually, but
trying not to use the Common Dialog control...

Um, try this one by Andreas Gerdes.  I foget where I got it but I find it
quite handy.  it allows you to save you own colours, and (my favourite), use
the colour picker mode to pick colours out of images on your screen.

Sheesh. You know, that's the second time I spent a while developing
something that nobody wants :-|

Sorry, I didn't have the time to test your prog. BTW does it use exclusively
RGB or also HSL (which artists usually prefer)? Why don't you add the
capability to make colormaps? That would be interesting for sure.

It uses exclusively RGB at the moment. If I switch to the Common Dialog
control (as opposed to my own GUI), that already implements HSL.
Colormaps... I might be able to shell out to POV-Ray and get a preview of
the texture. Or I might not ;-)
