Searching a tool to compile a list of screen addresses

I thought before I code it myself I just ask if anyone did it already:
I need a simple tool where I can load a C64 screen (as png or whatever) and click character cells to get a group / list of memory addresses. In the best case with a configureable base variable.

So like: you click on char in top left corner, name your variable "vidmem" and it spits out:
vidmem+(0*40)+0

Then you also click the char next to it and it spits out:
vidmem+(0*40)+0
vidmem+(0*40)+1

... or something similar ...

Yep, exactly that. Colorcycling bullshit ;-)
Anyway, I'm almost halfway done with my tool --- will share if no one is faster pointing out that such a thing already exists.

Ok. I just made one myself.
Nothing fancy, but it suits my needs for the moment.

i see you already made your own tool, but Trajed does something like that.
