First, create the color:

myColor = app.documents[0].colors.add({colorValue:[85,70,40,27],name:"NewCol"});
// then apply it
myTF.fillColor = myColor;

The only odd thing here is that you create a color and you get a new swatch. You can't actually create a new swatch directly.

If you don't name the swatch, it'll be called "Black copy" which is a bit odd -- at least, that's what happened to me using CS2.
