Description

PixelColor is a command line tool to get the color of a pixel from the screen.

You can simply pass the pixel coordinates (X and Y) and the pixel color will be printed as result.

Please see the following example:

pixelcolor --x 200 --y 300 --hex

This will get the pixel color at the coordinate 200x300 for the primary screen and will print the color as hexadecimal digit.
