Color Locator:

The colorLocator function plots R's 657 named colors. If locator=TRUE then you can interactively point and click to select the colors for which you want names. To end selection, right click on the mouse and select 'Stop', then R returns the selected color names.

The functions used here are wrappers to the functions provided by Tomas Aragon in the contributed R package epitools.

Color Locator:

colorsLocator() generates a plot with R colors and, when locator is true, returns matrix with graph coordinates and names of colors selected. colorsMatrix() quietly returns the matrix of names.
