The windows one just returns default black, which is correct in most cases since very few change it to something else.

GNU libtextstyle, part of gettext, includes CSS styling for ANSI terminal emulator text output.

For some values of "CSS" and "ANSI".

I will dig into a bit when I return to office computer...
