hey, i was just wondering if it would be possible to write some sort of
external that could ask what pixel is what color on the screen currently. this
would be a good backwards way of getting other software to interact with pd.
i already have a couple expiriments in mind.

In GridFlow there's code for doing screen/window captures. It's sort of integrated though, and designed for grabbing whole pictures and not individual pixels. However that sort of trick always revolves around the XGetImage() function. I assume you're using Linux or such.
