Colors in Emacs shell prompt

Question

Is it possible to use colors in the Emacs shell prompt (the prompt itself, not the rest of the shell screen) with the bash PS1 variable? I believe I have the syntax correct

Answer 1

I use that to change the terminal color and the information in mac, maybe can help:

Cyan="$(tput setaf 6)"
NC="$(tput sgr0)" # No Color
export PS1="$Cyan.Where-> \w\n\\$\[$NC\]"
