Stores the current foreground color for fixed-width text display routines.

== Comments ==
This is used by [[84PCSE:BCALLs:44F8|PutMap]], [[84PCSE:BCALLs:44FB|PutC]], and many other system routines that call PutMap and PutC, such as [[84PCSE:BCALLs:4501|PutS]], [[84PCSE:BCALLs:4507|PutPS]], and [[84PCSE:BCALLs:44FE|DispHL]].  It only has an effect if the [[84PCSE:Flags:4A#Bit_4|putmapDrawColor]] flag is set.

Colors are represented as a 5-6-5 value (5 bits of red, 6 bits of green, 5 bits of blue.)  For example, <span style="color: #f00">00000</span><span style="color: #0c0">011111</span><span style="color: #00f">00000</span>b, or 03E0h, would be dark green.  <span style="color: #f00">11111</span><span style="color: #0c0">000000</span><span style="color: #00f">11111</span>b, or 0F81Fh, would be bright magenta.
