+cielab color picker
+===================
+
+Haha well that certainly is a misnomer... This is actually a Hunter Lab color picker. CieL\*a\*b\* has gamut issues that make it more difficult to work with. Lab color is more appealing in a picker than RGB or HSL, if only for the reason that it is not full of desaturated grays.
+
+Very little to note about this, except if you click in one place and then shift-click in another, it will generate a 6-part gradient.
+
+Uses the functions from [http://www.easyrgb.com/index.php?X=MATH](http://www.easyrgb.com/index.php?X=MATH)
+
+Gradient idea from [http://davidjohnstone.net/pages/lch-lab-colour-gradient-picker](http://davidjohnstone.net/pages/lch-lab-colour-gradient-picker)
