+gresistor is a Gnome resistor color code calculator.
+
+To allow for identification, resistors are usually marked
+with colored bands. Often refered to as color codes, these
+markngs are indicative of their resistance, tolerance and
+temperature coefficient.
+gResistor helps you translate resistor color codes into a
+readable value. All you have to do is watch the colors on
+the resistor and then enter them in the program. As you
+enter colours you'll see that the resistor value changing
+accordingly.
