Use this variable to set the default foreground intensity.
0
| The runtime uses the default intensity for the output device. For both MS-DOS
and Windows, this default is low-intensity.
|
1
| The runtime uses low-intensity.
|
2
| The runtime uses high-intensity.

If your program specifies a default intensity, then the runtime will never
assign high-intensity if the foreground is black. As with the background, we do
this to prevent a washed-out appearance. There's one exception to this rule.
The runtime will assign high-intensity to a black foreground if the output
device does not support independent background intensities. In this case, the
device will typically show the background in high-intensity and keep the foreground
black. Note that if your program explicitly sets high-intensity, then that
will be used regardless of the foreground color. The default value for this
variable is "0".
