So I M-x rename-buffer it to MYshell.txt. Question: now, how to "bind" it to a disk file of the same name? Or if not that ( bind implying that by some magic that whatever chars appear in *shell* (Well, MYshell.txt buffer) automatically appears in the disk file too, maybe ), then where all I need to do is C-x s and the disk-file gets updated. ----- Thanks!
