Is there an equivalent in GIMP to the Color Sampler tool in Photoshop, please?

This has come directly to me so I assume you only copied it to the list. That means the list will not see my reply.

I will quote what I see in a book I have:- "With the Color Sampler tool active, clicking in your image attaches up to four samplers. These four Color Samplers can be used to measure and track shadows, mid tones, highlights and a fourth tone of your choice. While you are actively adjusting tonal values the color samplers provide a before and after readout in the Info palette."

It seems to be a bit like the Eyedropper but more so.

That's what the Reply to All button in your mail client is for.

The Sample Points should give roughly what you want: http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-sample-point-dialog.html
