[comp.windows.x] looking for utility to display colors

phil@grumpy.cgrg.ohio-state.edu (Phil Ritzenthaler) (12/28/90)

Is there a utility that I have missed that will look at the colors in
/usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt?

Color wheel, menu choice, any clue??

Thank you . . .

The mre demo which comes with Motif provides a handy color selection widget.
This would probably fill your needs, unless you need to view multiple colors
from the named color list at the same time.
