Let us say I have M-x shell in one window, and my prompt symbol "$" is
green color or bold, and in other window file in enriched mode.

Then I move to buffer *shell* and copy this:

,----
| $ ls
`----

I can see visually that $ is green in color or bold, and when I insert
it into enriched mode file, I can see the same color. When I save it,
it is not there, this is because propertized text was copied and
pasted.

Is enriched mode supposed to understand propertized text and convert
such into enriched mode?
