Yeah we should add this. Maybe next release where we look at getting the renderer fix in.

Hi, is there any update on this? Thanks.

I forgot about this, that's all. I'm preparing a release right now, but let me see if it's easy to squeeze this in before the release.

Also, interestingly, Apple's terminal still doesn't support strikethrough it seems. iTerm does though, of course.

Actually, sorry, but I think I'll push this till r175 (the one after the coming release) since I kind of want to push it out soon, and I want to make sure I get the rendering to look correct, plus support the new Vim text styles in one go (double underline, dashed / dotted underlines).

Nevermind what I said. I'm waiting to see if Vim will stabilize a bit before I pick a good version to release on, so we are going to squeeze it in for the coming release r174 (#1287).
