Summary: Need help with defaults

Hello, Turbo wizards.  I have a question/problem about Turbo Pascal 3.0 --
if I write a program using default display, text mode, and don't set the
foreground and background colors,  I get a default Yellow-on-Black combination.
This is nowhere near the Black-on-LightGray that I normally use.  What I really
would like is either a) determine what the screen colors are so that the
program can use the information, or b) just leave the screen colors alone so
that they stay whatever they are.

Is there a way to do this?
