# sxcs - Simple X Color Sniper

[![CodeBerg](https://img.shields.io/badge/Hosted_at-Codeberg-%232185D0?style=flat-square&logo=CodeBerg)](https://codeberg.org/NRK/sxcs)

Color picker and magnifier for X11.

![preview](https://images2.imgbox.com/4c/d0/LC6pYmrB_o.gif)

## Usage

<kbd>Button1</kbd> will select and print the color to `stdout`, the output is
TAB separated `hex`, `rgb`, and `hsl`.
<kbd>Scroll Up/Down</kbd> will zoom in and out.
Any other mouse button will quit sxcs.

Output format can be chosen via cli argument.
Zoom/magnification can be disabled via `--mag-none`.

```console
$ sxcs --rgb --mag-none
rgb:	22 158 111
```

Copying the hex output to clipboard (using `xclip`):

```console
$ sxcs -o --hex | cut -f 2 | xclip -in -selection clipboard
```

Color output can be disabled via `--color-none`, which more or less turns
`sxcs` into a magnifier.

The magnifying window can be customized via using `--mag-filters <filter-list>`,
where `filter-list` is a comma separated list of filters to apply. The
filter-list will be applied in order, as given by the user.

The default filter list is the following:

```console
$ sxcs --mag-filters "grid,icircle,xhair"
```

Following are a couple more examples:

```console
$ sxcs --mag-filters "square,xhair"
```

```console
$ sxcs --mag-filters "grid,xhair"
```

Consult the manpage to see a list of all available cli arguments and filters:

```console
$ man sxcs
```

## Dependencies

- Build Dependencies:
  * C89 compiler
  * Necessary library headers (on some distros you need to install `*-dev`
    packages to get header files)

- Runtime Dependencies:
  * Xlib
  * Xrender
  * POSIX 2001 C standard library

## Building

* Simple build:

```console
$ cc -o sxcs sxcs.c -O3 -s -l X11 -l Xrender
```

The above command should also work with `gcc`, `clang` or any other C compiler
that has a POSIX compatible cli interface.

* Debug build with `gcc` (also works with `clang`):

```console
$ gcc -o sxcs sxcs.c -std=c89 -Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic \
    -g3 -D DEBUG -O0 -fsanitize=address,undefined -l X11 -l Xrender
```

* If you're editing the code, you may optionally run some static analysis:

```console
$ make -f etc/analyze.mk
```

## Installing

Just copy the executable and the man-page to the appropriate location:

```console
# cp sxcs /usr/local/bin
# cp sxcs.1 /usr/local/share/man/man1
```

Or using the `install` utility:

```console
# install -Dm755 sxcs /usr/local/bin/sxcs
# install -Dm644 sxcs.1 /usr/local/share/man/man1/sxcs.1
```

A zsh completion script is also available for zsh users under
[etc/zsh-completion](./etc/zsh-completion/).

## Limitation

Cursor size bigger than 255x255 causes visual glitches, it seems to be an
inherent limitation.

One alternative would be using XComposite and using an `override_redirect`
window. Which is what was being done (incorrectly) before commit
[33490dd](https://codeberg.org/NRK/sxcs/commit/33490ddf9164655bf6decafa6f85082e413fa333).
I suspect doing this correctly would require way too much code, probably above
my self imposed limit of ~800 SLoC for this project.
