colorpicker: Only print the hexadecimal value.
$ colorpicker --hex
try on your machine

The command "colorpicker --hex" is used to launch a color picker tool that can display and retrieve the hexadecimal value of a chosen color.

When you run this command, a color picker window will appear. You can move your cursor to any part of the screen to select a color. As you hover over different colors, the hexadecimal value of the selected color will be displayed.

The hexadecimal color code is a six-digit combination of numbers and/or letters that represents a specific color. It is commonly used in web design and other digital applications to specify colors. Each pair of digits in the code represents the intensity of red, green, and blue (RGB) channels in the color, ranging from 00 (minimum intensity) to FF (maximum intensity).
