Get an Open Access colour value
B e s c h r e i b u n g / D e s c r i p t i o n
The GETCOL function returns the current value of one of the 19
separate Open Access colours.
The primary use of this routine is seen as recording a colour value
before the SETCOL function changes it. In this way a developer might
record the user's current colour scheme and then change it completely.
When the program finishes, the colours can be reset to their original
values.
