That integer is simply the RGB color values packed into a long. You can write
your own RGBStringToColor() function with something like:
int function RGBStringToColor(string rgb)
var int red, int green, int blue
let red = stringToInt(stringLeft(rgb, 3))
let green = stringToInt(subString(rgb, 4, 3))
let blue = stringToInt(stringRight(rgb, 3))
return makeLong((green << 8) + red, blue)
endFunction

I just always used GetColorAtPoint. Why the RGB?I use it in RhapsodyBlind.
Does that integer value ever change its internal meaning?
I do know that Get color at point becomes very unreliable once you start to
include background and foreground colors at least in iTunes where the column
headers were concerned.

You want foreground and background color. You get those with
getColorText() and getColorBackground(). GetColorAtPoint() returns the color
at a specific point, which could happen to be on either a foreground or
background part of a character, or not on a character at all.
Those three functions return integers. To get the nine-digit decimal code,
call colorToRGBString on each of the getColorBackground and GetColorText
results.

Jackie, the function GetColorAtPoint retrieves the RGB code, I want the 6
digit color code. Also can you give an example script for me to model my
script after? Thanks.
