Based on a snippet from mp-gnuplot (and agreeing with your point of
view that it would be nice if it worked without the extra hassle) I
tend to agree with Aditya (and I seem to remember that Hans
implemented \colored[r=...,g=...,b=...] command exactly when this
became a problem):
% Returns an image with colored text according to current color
% This only makes sense for mkiv text. Mkii is handled with \sometxt
% and colors are working properly there. /.../
vardef gp_colored_mkiv_text(expr str) =
% since withcolor doesn't work any more, we need to provide a workaround.
save r, g, b;
r = redpart gp_color_current;
g = greenpart gp_color_current;
b = bluepart gp_color_current;
rawtextext("\colored[r=" & decimal(r) & ",g=" & decimal(g) & ",b="
& decimal(b) & "]{" & str & "}")
enddef;
