Chalk: Chalk - A Library for printing styled text to the console using ANSI control sequences. Documentation of the ANSI code system: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code . References with detailed explainations of the various color models included here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSL_and_HSV and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HWB_color_model The complete history of the X11 color names (later used in css/svg also) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X11_color_names .

ChalkX11 on Chalk: This extension class adds proper methods to Chalk for all of the standard X11/CSS/SVG color names for use by Chalk. This extension has the added advantage of providing code completion and type checking at coding/compile time. Using the dynamic color method cannot provide any coding/compile time checks because it works via a dynamic lookup at run time. Example of using this extension for Chalk: chalk.lightGoldenrodYellow.onCornflowerBlue(...) versus having to use the color (or css or x11) method to get a dynamic so you can use the dynamic lookups: chalk.color.lightGoldenrodYellow.onCornflowerBlue(...) Because of the dynamic lookup is not resolved until run time that method can be prone to errors which would not be detected until run time.

ansiColorDisabled → bool: Read only. Chalk does not look at it's value.
final
chalk ↔ Chalk: Default global instance of chalk used for base call. This can be set to a specific Chalk instance that would then serve as basis for all calls.
getter/setter pair
chalkUsedAnsiInclude → String: Read only, informational only. Name of the ansi include file used supports_ansi.dart is the default, or the dart.libary.io version supports_ansi_io.dart or the dart.library.html version supports_ansi_web.dart.
final
dartSupportsAnsiColor → bool: Read only. Chalk does not use it's value although in some situation a user might use this to set the Chalk ansi color level (or something) I have left it here only for completeness. Within the common debug consoles this variable is essentially worthless because they return FALSE from both VSCode debug console and IntelliJ/Android Studio debug consoles. (This is because dart just checks for 'xterm' string being present in the 'TERM' environmental variable of the console..) See https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/31606 and https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/41770 for more info.
