+  tmux displays italics just fine in the status line. What's wrong?
+
+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:
+
+       $ mkdir $HOME/.terminfo/
+       $ screen_terminfo="screen"
+       $ infocmp "$screen_terminfo" | sed \
+         -e 's/^screen[^|]*\|[^,]*,/screen-it|screen with italics support,/' \
+         -e 's/smso=[^,]*,/smso=\\E[7m,/' \
+         -e 's/rmso=[^,]*,/rmso=\\E[27m,/' \
+         -e '$s/$/ sitm=\\E[3m, ritm=\\E[23m,/' > /tmp/screen.terminfo
+       $ tic /tmp/screen.terminfo
+
+And tell tmux to use it in ~/.tmux.conf:
+       
+       set -g default-terminal "screen-it"
+
+If your terminal supports 256 colors, use:
+
+       $ 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.
