It's no longer documented (or maybe it never was), but there is a call
which sets the fore/back
colors when in greyscale mode on OS < 3.5. From Windows.h:
// "obsolete" color call, supported for backwards compatibility
void WinSetColors(const RGBColorType *newForeColorP, RGBColorType
*oldForeColorP,
const RGBColorType *newBackColorP, RGBColorType
*oldBackColorP)
SYS_TRAP(sysTrapWinSetColors);
