Preserve colours from a shell session

Preserve colours from a shell session

[Decebal]

When working with a shell in Emacs, things are colored. But when
saving the buffer and reopening it later, the colors have disappeared.
Is there a way to preserve the colors?

No. But you can give the buffer the same mode(s) as the *shell* buffer.

I use M-x shell-mode.
This gives (Shell:no process). The original buffer had (Shell:run),
but it looks like that this is not a problem.
Thanks.
