How to use with "colors" lib?

https://github.com/Marak/colors.js https://www.npmjs.com/package/colors https://www.npmjs.com/package/chalk

Is there anything preventing this from working with the lib mentioned above? It should just be dealing with the escape sequences correct?

I’m having an issue getting it to work, which is not to say it’s an issue with xterm.js just that I am not aware of how to make it work or is an alternate color lib would be better suited.

@Tyriar ok I figured it out…

Chalk is doing some auto detection to see what it should support, using this lib: https://github.com/chalk/supports-color

Long story short, chalk thinks nothing is supported color wise, so it doesn’t process the strings.

let options: any = {enabled: true, level: 2};
const forcedChalk = new chalk.constructor(options);

^ fixes it in the browser

where Levels are:

0: All colors disabled
1: Basic color support (16 colors)
2: 256 color support
3: Truecolor support (16 million colors)

@aventurella thank you! but it seems that chalk.constructor is deprecated and may have been removed in the latest versions. We ought to use chalk.Instance instead.
