default-foreground-color

Arguments: window

Returns the default foreground color for window. This color will be used as the foreground color (for drawing and for text) when the value of the foreground-color property of window is nil.

The value must be an RGB color (as returned by make-rgb). Note that the value cannot be an HLS color (as returned by make-hls). If you use HLS colors, apply hls-to-rgb to them before setting this property, and apply rgb-to-hls to get the HLS equivalent of a RGB value.

With the built-in methods, this is always the value returned by system-foreground-color, usually black unless the end user has set up a different text color in the Windows Control Panel.

Contrast with default-background-color, which has different defaults for various window classes, such as system-dialog-background-color for dialog-mixin and system-background-color for basic-pane.
