option is not given. If dbfile isn't given and can't be retrieved
from the optionsdb, just initialize it to the first element in
RGB_TXT.
Backport candidate.
build(): Fix the logic here for calculating fallbacks if the dbfile
isn't parseable.
main(): Fix the semantics for -d/--database; this should override any
database value found in the .pynche file.
Update some comments, and author contact info.
Bump to v1.4
Whitespace normalization.
You can switch database by just loading the new one; the list window
and nearest colors adapt to the new database.
Some reorganizing of code. Also, the name of the database file is
stored in the ~/.pynche pickle. If it can't be loaded, fallbacks are
used.
run either as a standalone application (by running pynche or
pynche.pyw), or as a modal dialog inside another application. This
can be done by importing pyColorChooser and running askcolor(). The
API for this is the same as the tkColorChooser.askcolor() API, namely:
When `Okay' is hit, askcolor() returns ((r, g, b), "name"). When
`Cancel' is hit, askcolor() returns (None, None).
Note the following differences:
1. pyColorChooser.askcolor() takes an optional keyword `master'
which if set tells Pynche to run as a modal dialog. `master'
is a Tkinter parent window. Without the `master' keyword
Pynche runs standalone.
2. in pyColorChooser.askcolor() will return a Tk/X11 color name as
"name" if there is an exact match, otherwise it will return a
color spec, e.g. "#rrggbb". tkColorChooser can't return a
color name.
There are also some UI differences when running standalone vs. modal.
When modal, there is no "File" menu, but instead there are "Okay" and
"Cancel" buttons.
The implementation of all this is a bit of a hack, but it seems to
work moderately well. I'm not guaranteeing the pyColorChooser.Chooser
class has the same semantics as the tkColorChooser.Chooser class.
