Screen's terminfo description lacks italics mode and has standout mode in its
-place. To make applications aware that tmux supports italics, you'll need to
-create a new terminfo file with modified smso, rmso, sitm and ritm entries:
+place, but using the same escape sequence that urxvt uses for italics. This
+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/
$ screen_terminfo="screen"
$ infocmp "$screen_terminfo" | sed \

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
