### Render basic markup with AnsiMarkup.Render

Source: https://github.com/xenoatom/xenoatom.ansi/blob/main/doc/readme.md

```csharp
var s = AnsiMarkup.Render("[bold yellow on blue]Warning[/] disk is almost full");
```

--------------------------------

### Get basic-16 RGB approximation

Source: https://github.com/xenoatom/xenoatom.ansi/blob/main/doc/readme.md

Shows how to obtain an RGB approximation for a basic-16 palette index using AnsiPalettes.GetBasic16Rgb. The result is a tuple of (R,G,B) values.

```csharp
var rgb = AnsiPalettes.GetBasic16Rgb(AnsiColors.Red.Index); // (R,G,B) approximation
```

--------------------------------

### Custom token dictionary with AnsiMarkup

Source: https://github.com/xenoatom/xenoatom.ansi/blob/main/doc/readme.md

Creates a custom token dictionary mapping tokens like '[primary]' and '[error]' to AnsiStyle objects. Token lookup is case-insensitive and avoids per-token string allocations. The example writes styled output using an AnsiBuilder and AnsiWriter.

```csharp
var tokens = new Dictionary<string, AnsiStyle>(StringComparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase)
{
    ["primary"] = new AnsiStyle { Foreground = AnsiColors.Web.CornflowerBlue },
    ["error"]   = new AnsiStyle { Foreground = AnsiColors.BrightRed, Decorations = AnsiDecorations.Bold },
};

using var builder = new AnsiBuilder();
var w = new AnsiWriter(builder);
var m = new AnsiMarkup(w, tokens);

m.Write("[primary]info[/] [error]boom[/]");
```

--------------------------------

### Interpolated values are escaped automatically

Source: https://github.com/xenoatom/xenoatom.ansi/blob/main/doc/readme.md

Shows that user input interpolated into the markup string is escaped, so markup tags in the input are not interpreted. The example renders the literal text '[red]not actually red[/]' in red.

```csharp
var userInput = "[red]not actually red[/]";
var s = AnsiMarkup.Render($"[red]{userInput}[/]");
```

--------------------------------

```APIDOC
## AnsiStyledTextParser

### Description
Provides a higher-level 'runs' view intended for rendering. Applies `SgrToken` operations to produce `AnsiStyle` changes per run and interprets OSC 8 hyperlinks.

### Behavior
