+        KColorChooser is a color palette tool, used to mix colors and create custom
+        color palettes.  Using the dropper, it can obtain the color of any pixel on
+        the screen.
+        .
+        A number of common color palettes are included, such as the standard Web colors
+        and the Oxygen color scheme.
