It is possible to enable color output of the command line tools:
fzf/args controls fzf color output. By default it disables it with --color bw
fzf/grep-command, set to use ripgrep (its second choice menu entry), selects a default command line with --color never
Both of the above disable color output. To enable color output, simply customize these user-options and remove the respective command line switches.
Problem: However, when doing so with Emacs running inside a terminal session that displays colors using ANSI code sequences, the file name and line number extraction often fail because the ANSI codes are not filtered out.
