(or just regular text) instead of reverse. What's wrong?
Screen's terminfo description lacks italics mode and has standout mode in its GNU screen does not support italics and the "screen" terminfo description uses
place, but using the same escape sequence that urxvt uses for italics. This the italics escape sequence incorrectly.
means applications (like vim) looking for italics will not find it and might
turn to reverse in its place, while applications (like less) asking for
standout will end up with italics instead of reverse. To make applications
aware that tmux supports italics and to use a proper escape sequence for
standout, you'll need to create a new terminfo file with modified sgr, smso,
rmso, sitm and ritm entries:
$ mkdir $HOME/.terminfo/ If default-terminal is set to "screen" or matches "screen-*", tmux will behave
$ screen_terminfo="screen" like screen and italics will be disabled.
$ infocmp "$screen_terminfo" | sed \
-e 's/^screen[^|]*|[^,]*,/screen-it|screen with italics support,/' \ To enable italics, create a new terminfo entry called "tmux" (some platforms
-e 's/%?%p1%t;3%/%?%p1%t;7%/' \ may already have this, you can check with "infocmp tmux"):
-e 's/smso=[^,]*,/smso=\\E[7m,/' \
-e 's/rmso=[^,]*,/rmso=\\E[27m,/' \ $ cat <<EOF|tic -x -
-e '$s/$/ sitm=\\E[3m, ritm=\\E[23m,/' > /tmp/screen.terminfo tmux|tmux terminal multiplexer,

If your terminal supports 256 colors, use: If using urxvt, make sure you have an italics capable font enabled. for
example, add to ~/.Xdefaults:
$ screen_terminfo="screen-256color"
instead of "screen". See the FAQ entry about 256 colors support for more info.
Also note that tmux will still display reverse video on terminals that do not
support italics.
If your urxvt cannot display italics at all, make sure you have an italics
capable font enabled, for example, add to ~/.Xdefaults:
urxvt.italicFont: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:italic:autohint=true urxvt.italicFont: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:italic:autohint=true
