Can't remember color poke command

Way back in the day when I used to program BASIC on the atari 800, I would use a poke command that would cycle all the colors really fast. But for the life of me I can't remember what it was. Does anyone remember?

Welcome to the site!
Not sure if this is what you're after:

However, this site contains a wealth of programming information for The Atari 8-bit machines.

I believe you are looking for. . . . . . .
Poke 710,#
to change the text it was. . . . . . .
Poke 709,#
# is the number that coresponds to the color you want
0 is black and 10 is white, if I remember correctly

10 for c=0 to 255
20 poke 710,c
30 next c
Replacing 710 (border) by 712 will cycle the background colors.
