Corresponding source code
I did not realize that "color" between quotes is correct (as it is correct without quotes as well).
This said, pasting into Scheme sessions IMHO still doesn't "work as it should". I add more details here, although the bug can probably be closed.
I expect it to paste expressions as plain text, while they get interpreted by TeXmacs.
This example is better than the one I made first.
1. Write a mathematical expression with Greek letters
2. Copy it to TeXmacs Scheme
3. Paste it onto a Scheme session
The Greek letters appear as Greek letters, not as Scheme code. The way to get them to appear as Scheme code (e.g. <alpha>) is paste from Verbatim.
Since I expected the Scheme session to work like a terminal, I did not figure out how to get around this for a long time (for a while I used pasting to a text editor as an intermediate step).
Most probably this is an issue of user interface and not a malfunctioning, in the sense that Joris (or who wrote the code) intended it to work in this way.
