# Usage
Launch it. Click. That's it.
## Options
`-f | --format=[fmt]` specifies the output format (`cmyk`, `hex`, `rgb`, `hsl`, `hsv`)
`-n | --no-fancy` disables the "fancy" (aka. colored) outputting
`-h | --help` prints a help message
`-a | --autocopy` automatically copies the output to the clipboard (requires [wl-clipboard](https://github.com/bugaevc/wl-clipboard))
`-r | --render-inactive` render (freeze) inactive displays too
`-z | --no-zoom` disable the zoom lens
