🎀 pastel-pick(1) 🎀

okay so bestie, you just opened a page from the General Commands Manual and it's all about pastel-pick — yes, the little pipette icon of your dreams. grab a strawberry 🍓, sit down, and let's get into it.

✨ NAME ✨

pastel-pick — Interactively pick a color from the screen (pipette)

like… literally a color eyedropper. you point, you click, you get a color. iconic behavior.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

pastel pick [-h|--help] [count]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. ✨

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

it prints a whole spectrum of colors to choose from, so you can pick your fave like you're scrolling a playlist. 🎨

⚠️ heads up bestie: this command requires an external color picker tool to be installed. it does not come with one built in, no cap. you gotta bring your own.

Supported tools (the approved besties, all of them, in order):

so yeah, one of those has to exist on your system or this whole thing is giving nothing. 🙈

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -h, --help — print help. specifically, the long version, the full summary situation. if you want the short one, use -h. (yes, that's the flex the manpage is making. read it again. we said what we said. 🫶)
  • [count] [default: 1] — number of colors to pick. want one color? that's the default, you're already there. want a whole lil palette? say a number and go off. 👑

💖 a lil sign-off 💖

this page comes to you from the pick source, and it's page pastel-pick(1) of the manual. no date on it, no fancy version drama, just vibes. now go pick a color bestie, you're gonna slay. 💅✨🌈
