Synopsis
Unofficial Name: curBGColor
Memory Address: A017h
Length: 2 bytes
Stores the current background color for fixed-width text display routines.
Comments
This is used by PutMap, PutC, and many other system routines that call PutMap and PutC, such as PutS, PutPS, and DispHL. It only has an effect if the 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, 0000001111100000b, or 03E0h, would be dark green. 1111100000011111b, or 0F81Fh, would be bright magenta.
