[ANN] [EN] [FR] So Smart Software introduces Color Picker 1.1 and Guides Picker 2.1

[Eric Chatonet]

Hello Rob,

Color Picker is a free open source product but with a licence (see  
the help/overview stack):

> ColorPicker and its present help stack are released into the public  
> domain as a freeware software:

BTW replacing the system built-in color picker by my Color Picker  
plugin when ask color is called does not seem a good idea:
Disregarding the licence terms, it's not what your end user expects  
for...

Anyway I do encourage you to take a leaf out of Color Picker's  
scripts to run your own if you wish!
Check the PickColor and ShowColor handlers in Color Picker's card  
script to get a starting place :-)
To access the scripts, check the "Contextual menus work in Revolution  
windows" option in rev Prefs and use a right click in Color Picker's  
window to display the contextual menu.

Best regards from Paris,

Eric Chatonet.
