Simple vim 9 virtual text example for hex colors

Not for GVim, which could call native GUI widgets. I found this old-ish plugin that actually can call color pickers form terminal by invoking them in command line. A little hacky, but works. https://github.com/KabbAmine/vCoolor.vim/

I like yad[0] for this. For example, I use it to present a GUI color picker to change/insert colors in Vim (via a plugin called vCoolor[1]). I also use it in some i3/sway scripts that need user input or to show a progress bar.

How do you usually change colors (css files etc) in nvim? Going to gimp or?

Checkout the vCoolor.vim plugin. It allows you to insert a new color or change existing colors in code. It opens a pop-up window (outside of the TUI) were you can see the chosen color room and select a color as you are probably used to.

After playing with my config I noticed that coc-css does exact same thing, so I disabled this plugin. I might enable it again if I move to neovim built-in LSP in the future.
