###Windows

Installation

Install this repository via Package Control.

Usage

To insert or change a selected color, use:

• Linux: ctrl+shift+c

By default, the hex color code is inserted using uppercase letters. To use lowercase letters instead, copy the contents of Preferences -> Package Settings -> ColorPicker -> Settings-Default to the empty file created by selecting Preferences -> Package Settings -> ColorPicker -> Settings-User, then change "color_upper_case" to false.

Calling from Other Plugins

To commands are provided to assist in calling a color picker from other plugins. Info is shared between the plugins via a settings file. It does not have to exist on disk; it can exist only in memory for the sole purpose of sharing the return. It is advised to use a unique name for the settings file. The data is returned in the settings key color_pick_return. It is advised to set color_pick_return to None in your settings file before calling any of the commands. So you can tell if it set teh variable or not.
