@miguelsousa wouldn't it be appropriate to keep the issue open so it is recognized that italics is desired and a contribution of italic shapes would be accepted?
Add my vote/interest for it. Both my source code in IntelliJ IDEA as well as Sublime Text highlighting uses italics and the faux italics/slant Source Code Pro uses right now is not "good enough" for me to work with. So in the end I had to revert back to Consolas.
+1 from me too. We live in the world of theme-able editors and it is a pretty useful addition. Especially since most text editors default to having comments in italics.
of course, I expect google to pick them up, unless they have an issue with the character set discrepancy (Greek and Cyrillic missing from the italics).

Quoting Paul: "If there is enough interest in companion italics for Source Code, hopefully the community will help to develop them."

I think so. We’ll leave this an open issue for now and see what comes of it.
miguelsousa commentedon Sep 25, 2012
Agree.
Francisc commentedon Sep 25, 2012
Some editors or themes make use of italics for special or otherwise reserved words.
I'm in favour of italics.

This is an issue for Brackets too (we had to turn off bold/italics in the Markdown mode we got from CodeMirror, which uses them by default).
Melindrea commentedon Sep 26, 2012
I will add as well that italics would be of interest to me.
I will try to see what I can do to help, though I know little of how to make fonts, so I fear that "making encouraging noises" is about what I can do.

Italic would be nice, so it can be used in TextMate :)

Add my vote for a true italic. It is very nice to have in Vera Sans Mono.

I'd like proper italics too, if at all possible. (I tend to use italics to style code comments).

From what I've seen (I'm using a beta version in Mac Scrivener) it is gorgeous =) Thank you so much!
