Solarized - Apple Color Picker Palette
======================================
### [See official homepage for full content](http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized)
Installation
------------
Copy or move the `solarized.clr` file to your `~/Library/Colors` directory.
Use the included colorpicker launcher to confirm installation. Launch the
`launch-colorpicker` application, navigate to the color palette view (usually
the third icon from the left) and select 'Solarized' from the drop-down palette
list. Click the cancel button to dismiss the color picker.

Alternate Palette
------------------
NOT FOR USE UNLESS YOU UNDERSTAND THE HELL THAT IS COLOR MANAGEMENT.
The `alternate palettes` directory contains two Apple Color Picker palettes.
The "tagged" palette is identical to the main Solarized.clr palette. The
untagged palette contains untagged sRGB values (Apple calls untagged values
"device colors"). Don't use this unless you are using an application that
otherwise can't handle tagged values.
An example: If you are a web developer working on OS X and you wish to use one
of the Solarized hex values, you have a couple choices:
1. Enter the code manually (easy, you should do this)
2. Use the color picker (possible, but do it the right way! See below...)
A popular colorpicker plugin is the "Hex Color Picker" from
<http://wafflesoftware.net/hexpicker/>. If you wish to use this with the
colorpicker and a preset palette like Solarized, here's what you do:
1. Instead of the plain old "solarized.clr" palette, use the "solarized-tagged"
and "solarized-untagged" palettes (solarized-tagged is the same as
solarized.clr, just renamed for clarity).
2. In the Hex Color picker (inside the Apple Color Picker) click the options
button and ensure that "Don't generate calibrated colors" is **checked**.
Ideally, Hex Color Picker would be aware of a particular color being
untagged (a "device" color in Apple parlance) and hand it over to you in
unaltered form, even if it was otherwise pulling calibrated colors off your
display.
3. If you desire a Solarized color **for web use** (not for use in an
application that uses Mac color swatches) then you switch to the
Solarized-untagged palette in Color Picker, choose a color, switch to the
Hex Color Picker tab and grab the correct color. Double check against the
chart below to confirm it's working as expected.
This is just one of many examples of how, even with applications/plugins that
deal exclusively with color, there are unexpected or unintuitive exceptions to
take into account.
