FvwmCommand is not the best way to query colorsets, but tricks like the
following are possible:
% FvwmCommand 'PipeRead "echo $[fg.cs1] $[bg.cs1] >/tmp/cs1.txt"'
% cat /tmp/cs1.txt
It is easy to write a module in Perl that queries the colorset definitions
(including image properties that can't be queried ourside of modules).
You just create Colorsets tracker object and it does all the black work
for your module to keep an up to date information about all colorsets.
If you take this path, run "fvwm-perllib man" from a shell, and
"FvwmDebug --xconsole --track Colorsets" from FvwmConsole in 2.5.x.
