True Color (24-bit) and italics with alacritty + tmux + vim (neovim)

This should make True Color (24-bit) and italics work in your tmux session and vim/neovim when using Alacritty (and should be compatible with any other terminal emulator, including Kitty).

Testing colors

Running this script should look the same in tmux as without.

Vim has many plugins (vim-go, ale, etc.) that use the quickfix/location list
feature. Some of these plugins process the output of an external command and
update the quickfix list asynchronously as the output becomes available.

Updating a quickfix or location list asynchronously opens up the possibility
that two or more plugins may try to update the same quickfix list with
different output.  Also when a plugin is updating a quickfix list in the
background, the user may issue a command that creates or updates a quickfix
list. The plugin may then incorrectly use this new list to add the entries.

The right way to override any highlighting if you don't want to edit the colorscheme file directly

Generalities first

Suppose you have weird taste and you absolutely want:

• your visual selection to always have a green background and black foreground,
• your active statusline to always have a white background and red foreground,
• your very own deep blue background.

Colours in terminal

It's a common confusion about terminal colours... Actually we have this:

• plain ascii
• ansi escape codes (16 colour codes with bold/italic and background)
• 256 colour palette (216 colours + 16 ansi + 24 gray) (colors are 24bit)
• 24bit true colour ("888" colours (aka 16 milion))

printf "\x1b[${bg};2;${red};${green};${blue}m\n"

        -- if Terminal is running create new window
        if isRunning then do script ""
