Freestanding Color Picker Programs

I do that too - a lot. Although, I haven't written a command-line tool in quite some time now. I wrote a little dialog-based app that I clone for most things now. Mostly because I have a drag-and-drop edit control that I use all the time and it makes the UI very easy to use.
Is this D&D edit control something around which I could create such a tool?

Probably. I found it at this site. There's a D&D combobox too which can be useful. I made them work in 64-bit unicode mode also. If you don't want to deal with that then let me know and I will try to send them to you, somehow.

In case you are interesting in technical deep discussions concerning colorimetrics, I will be very happy and available. It Looks like I'm becoming more and more a Dinosaurier in this field, after the big chemicals gave up to investigate more in this field :( :)
It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question
I just noticed that I neglected to acknowledge your offer to discuss colorization in greater depth. For now, I'll pass; although the topic has some appeal, I have specific interests, such as, e. g., selecting a contrasting color from the color wheel.

Today, I went in search of a freestanding color picker that can generate RGB color codes. My search yielded two excellent choices. Pixeur, available at https://pixeur.en.uptodown.com/windows/download, is a small standard Windows program that essentially mimics the color pickers in Microsoft Office (and the one that is hidden in Windows 10 unless you are editing a high contrast theme. RoseLT Color Picker is a Modern (UWP) app, available in the English-language South African department of the Microsoft Store, at https://www.microsoft.com/en-za/p/roselt-color-picker/9nq8c70flp0r, is a bit more fancy, and fills the whole screen to accommodate its many output options and its display of a list of the standard named colors. I like both, and I'm not sure which of the two I'll use most. What I know for certain is that both, or ones like them, deserve a spot in the toolkit of every serious software developer or graphic artist, for use when the color pickers in your favorite tool are out of reach.
