 +The old way of installing Command Line Tools from the Terminal doesn't work anymore. But now it can be done from [[https://developer.apple.com/download/more/?=command%20line%20tools|the Developer download site]], not from the Terminal.

 +==== tmux and "tmux-256color" ====
 +
 +We set tmux to set $TERM to "tmux" so that neovim's highlight can include italics. And we bump it to "tmux-256color" so that VisiData can make use of all its colors. (Dot plot AirPassengers.csv but don't set the month column to any format.)
 +
 +VisiData will complain it "could not find terminfo database". So we [[https://gist.github.com/nicm/ea9cf3c93f22e0246ec858122d9abea1?permalink_comment_id=4206886#gistcomment-4206886|manually use the one provided by a tmux developer]]...
