For the CURRENT color, you can simply update a variable each time you
change colors:

text_color(4)
current_text_color = 4

   -- or --

bk_color(var)
current_bk_color = var

(There are 2 ways for fore and back ground colors :)

This is what I am doing in my ANSI terminal, to keep track of the current
color. (It still has a couple display problems, but it works O.K.)
