Getting the background color?

Hello all,

   Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I couldn't find the answer in any of
the docs I had.

   I have written a World Wide Web browser in emacs.  In epoch, I
support the use of inlined images.  I use the pbmplus package of
graphics converters to switch between the different graphics types
until I can get it to xpixmap format.  The Xmosaic WWW client changes
Xbitmaps on the fly to have the same background color as the main
window, and I would like to do the same.

   The Xpixmap format will make this trivial to do, but I can't find a
way to get the epoch background color.  Couldn't find a variable that
held the default style, etc, etc.

   Any simple way to do this?  I could do an epoch::get-default on
emacs*background, but that wouldn't work in all cases.

   Thanks for any help,
	Bill P.
