  Returns
 
    Integer    Current text color attribute
 
  Description
 
    The _GetTextColor function returns the index (attribute) of the
    current text color. Text color is set only by the _SetTextColor
    procedure and only affects text output generated by the _OutText
    and _OutMem procedures. Use the _SetColor procedure to set the
    color for font-based text generated by the _OutGText procedure.
 
    The default is the highest legal color index of the current
    palette in graphics modes, or 7 in text modes.
