My fork of the Suckless Terminal
st currently does not keep any mode for the cursor that was active in the underlying glyph (e.g. italic text), the mode is always ATTR_NULL [1]. At [2] you can find a screenshot that shows the implications. Other terminals (at least vte-based, such as XFCE-terminal) keep some modes for the cursor. I find the current behaviour very disruptive, so here is a patch that keeps a few (arbitrarily chosen) modes for the cursor.
