[Iterm With Italics] Enable italics in iTerm

enable-iterm-italics.sh

#!/bin/bash

# Override the local entry for xterm-256color
# See https://eddieantonio.ca/blog/2015/04/16/iterm-italics/
# Only affects your machine so remote machines simply won’t display italics
# which is better than having to create workarounds for ssh and tmux
infocmp xterm-256color > /tmp/xterm-256color.terminfo
printf '\tsitm=\\E[3m, ritm=\\E[23m,\n' >> /tmp/xterm-256color.terminfo
tic /tmp/xterm-256color.terminfo

# Or if you prefere to create a new terminfo and have an ssh alias:
