DigitalColor Meter with hex codes?

I'm just wondering if anyone has found a way to get hex codes back in DigitalColor Meter or knows of a suitable replacement for the 10.7 version that removed hex codes?

I use DCM almost daily for hex codes and am completely baffeled as to why this was removed from the 10.7 version.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7)

For all of you trying to figure this out - let me show you with the Digital Color meter

Now when you sample -

Your hex number here is #88BAE6

Not as convenient but it's still there.

Regarding convenience: Command-Shift-C copies the value nicely formatted in the Clipboard.

Might help someone.
