title: How to use the Operator font with neovim?
body: <p>I am trying to setup my neovim with the operator mono. I am running neovim in iterm2, so I have used the profile preferences to select the Operator font, and that is more or less working.</p>
  
  <p>However I would rather use my vimrc to specify the font for neovim. So my first question is whether that is possible?</p>
  
  <p>Partly, I'd like to do that because I would like to take advantage of the Operator fonts special italics. Normally, I'd activate those for comments in my vimrc like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>highlight Comment gui=italic
  highlight Comment cterm=italic
  highlight htmlArg gui=italic
  highlight htmlArg cterm=italic
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, these don't seem to work with neovim. So my second question is: how do I activate Operator italic font for commented out code in neovim.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
