no! i tried a very simple test:

,----
| int main(void) {
|     int i = 0;
|     char *abc = "hello, world";
| 
|     while (i < 100)
| 	i++;
| 
|     exit(0);
| }
`----

after i from scatch input all the code above, there is no any color. then i
close the file and re-open it. the color comes up. :(

Jesse: I heard this story once about when the Germans were occupying
Paris and they had to retreat back. They wired Notre Dame to blow,
but they had to leave one guy in charge of hitting the switch. And
the guy, the soldier, he couldn't do it. You know, he just sat
there, knocked out by how beautiful the place was. And then when
the allied troops came in, they found all the explosives just
lying there and the switch unturned, and they found the same thing
at Sacre Couer, Eiffel Tower. Couple other places I think...
Celine: Is that true?
Jesse: I don't know. I always liked the story, though.
