 +The Therion Book 6.1.7 suggests that map command-like options include colour, however this seems to be incorrect.  The -colour option seems to be a select parameter (not a map parameter) and can be described like this...

 +**‘select’** 
 + 
 +Descriptionselects objects (surveys and maps) for export…

 +Options: 
 +…

 +• colo[u]r <colour>  set the map colour when selecting a map; this option overrides the specified colour palette ONLY when the layout specifies colour map-fg [map], [scrap] or [<colour>] It has no effect when the layout specifies colour map-fg [altitude] It has no effect when the layout specifies colour map-fg [topo-date] or [explo-date], for the scraps whose associated surveys have dates assigned.

 +In summary: 
 + 
 +Select map -colour overrides layout or lookup colour map-fg statements when… 
 + 
 +  * colour map-fg [r g b] 
 +  * colour map-fg scrap 
 +  * colour map-fg map 
 + 
 +Select map -colour does not override layout or lookup colour map-fg statements when… 
 + 
 +  * colour map-fg altitude 
 +  * colour map-fg topo-date, unless the map has no date 
 +  * colour map-fg explo-date, unless the map has no date
