I'm following the guide here: https://alexpearce.me/2014/05/italics-in-iterm2-vim-tmux/



and it works for default tmux, but if I start tmux via byobu, the term type is screen-256color. It seems ~/.tmux.conf is not getting sourced.



I tried adding the same set -g default-terminal "tmux" to ~/.byobu/window.tmux but that prevented byobu from starting.

          I tried again today and I found that byobu reads .tmux.conf from ~/.byobu or maybe it is ~/.local/share/byobu/. I symlinked that to my ~/.tmux.conf and I now have italic fonts. I rarely use tmux directly. I guess I could have copied it.



          Summary:



          # Paste this in a terminal.
          cat <<EOF|tic -x -
          tmux|tmux terminal multiplexer,
          ritm=E[23m, rmso=E[27m, sitm=E[3m, smso=E[7m, Ms@,
          use=xterm+tmux, use=screen,

          tmux-256color|tmux with 256 colors,
          use=xterm+256setaf, use=tmux,
          EOF
          echo 'set -g default-terminal "tmux-256color"' >> ~/.local/share/byobu/.tmux.conf


          Restart byobu and test that it works:



          # I have italics
          echo `tput sitm`italics`tput ritm`
          # I have 256 colors
