On startup Bow sits in the system tray. Press win + middleclick (or win + leftclick) to capture the colour under the cursor and add it to the clipboard (in hex format).

The GUI window’s background shows the selected colour, and previews the contrast against black and white text (see screenshot). Hit the x to close it.
