Detailed description

This call sets the colour that text is displayed when inserted via any console API call:

WriteText
SetLineText
SetLineBytes

The colour specified is true 24-bit R,G,B, however, internally console text is stored as 6 bits per pixel - that is 4 grades of red, green and blue.

This call compliments API Console.SetInputRGB which sets the colour for text typed by the user.
