Native OS X Color Chooser/Grabber?
While I'm coding CSS, what would be the easiest way for me to choose or grab colors and get their 3 or 6 digit code? Are there any plugins for TextWrangler or Safari (I know one exists for Firefox, but Firefox seems to eat up system resources on my Mac much faster then Safari). Without opening Photoshop or Dreamreaver, I was curious how this is done. Is there a lightweight method to finding colors? What do you use? What would you recommend? Keep in mind I need an OS X app, not Windows.
Thanks,
Brad
