ital – Au­to­matic italic cor­rec­tion

The pack­age de­fines com­mands \ital and \slant that pro­vide the req­ui­site italic cor­rec­tion at the end of their ar­gu­ment, and the com­mand \up­right that pro­vides italic cor­rec­tion in front of its ar­gu­ment as nec­es­sary. A com­mand \emph is also pro­vided, choos­ing be­tween \ital and \up­right ac­cord­ing to the state of the sur­round­ing text.
Th­ese fa­cil­i­ties are (of course) pro­vided in LaTeX 2e, with dif­fer­ent names as part of the dis­tri­bu­tion.
