GetPixel
********

This is my first piece of bloatware for AmigaOS - however I haven't found any
other 'free' tool that can do this easily - so who cares about the filesize - it
does the job nicely.

So what does this do?

GetPixel simply takes a simple snapshot of your screen and then allows you to
Zoom around it and recall the Hexidecimal colour value of a pixel on the screen.

This can be useful at times for graphic artists and web designers.  For
instance, you might find a website of interest, you simply start GetPixel and
move the mouse of areas of the website of interest and write down the hex values
necessary for your own CSS styles or whatever.

This is quicker and more convenient than first taking a screenshot and opening
it in up an art package either installed natively or on another platform.

Source code is included for anyone that is interest in perhaps adding more
features.

Enjoy!
