italicization?

[sco...@ckhb.org]

my environment is ubu 19.10. i run qterminal for shell sessions with a font
chosen that supports utf-8, italics, emoji, etc. my default term type is
xterm-256color-italic (xterm-256color with sitm and ritm defined for
italicization control).

when i open a new qterm session with a bare bash login session, the following
command sequence gives output as expected:

tput sitm;echo 'italic?';tput ritm;echo 'italic?'

the output of the first echo statement is displayed with italic characters and
the second echo displays normal charaters.

i then open a tmux session ($ tmux) with no local configuration. the same
command sequence now shows italics as black foreground and white background.

i have tried searching for the tmux configuration controls for this and have
found nothing. is this indeed controlled by tmux? or something else?

thanks.

indeed, i did already have the global default-terminal parameter defined in my
local config; but i had not previously made note of the FAQ. thank you very
much.

with today's git pull and rebuild, the display is now once again correct for a
minimal config on ubu 19.10 and 20.04 and macos Darwin Kernel Version 17.7.0.

i apologize for the noise. cheers.
