From "man emerge"
--color < y | n >
Enable or disable color output. This option will override
NOCOLOR (see make.conf(5)) and may also be used to force color
output when stdout is not a tty (by default, color is disabled
unless stdout is a tty).
So you'd want...
/usr/bin/emerge --color y --ask --update --deep --newuse --tree --verbose
@world | tee --append nom.txt
Insert "--color y" into the command.
