coltab

coltab (shortened from color table) — A simple python script to display samples of 8-bit colors available in most terminals.

About

This is just a script I wrote for my own use, but I figured I should put it here as well.

Installation

1. Download the python file or clone this repository

2. Put the script file in /usr/local/bin or anywhere in your $PATH

3. Make sure Python 3 and pip3 is installed

   $ python3 --version
   Python 3.x.x
   $ pip3 --version
   pip x.x.x from /path/to/dir (python 3.x)
   

4. If you've cloned this repository, you can run

   $ pip3 install requirements.txt
   

   or if you haven't, then run

   $ pip3 install click==7.1.2
   

5. Make sure the script has the permission to be executed by running

   $ chmod a+x coltab
   

6. Now you're all set! Try running $ coltab, it should run without any problem.

Note: I haven't tried running this script on Windows yet. It may or may not work, but if you happen to test it, please let me know.
