@mhartington

Or, how do I determin those values

Mike Hartington

@mhartington

if I do ffi, ff, ffl, the ligtures are not applied. so it's only fl and fi

Mike Hartington

@mhartington

Hmm, seem the ligatures only happen in kitty term, not iterm

Hi does anybody know how to fix the issue of i3's status bar showing the special Nerd Fonts characters as "smaller" than all the other characters?

It can be seen even in the i3status-rust example image

Would you be interested in having the install script available as an ansible task with a similar option scope?

I want to write one anyway, but will write it much cleaner, if there is interest in reusing it as an alternative installation path

Update: Release 1.2.0 works fine. It's with 2.0.0 that's the problem. I suspect it has something to do with ryanoasis/nerd-fonts#318

1.2.0 works fine in Windows Terminal as well.

Is anyone having trouble with the cheat sheet on the website? Using it in firefox with no plugins enabled yields no search results when I try to use it. Is there another resource I can use to find the glyphs I want lol? I'm trying to customize my zshrc.

Patricio Tapia Ugalde

@elsilentforce

@Thorhian I got the same trouble, It seems that Cheat Sheet is not working :(

Noam Eyal

@noameyal

is there any other way to see the full list of glyphs?

Ryan L McIntyre

@ryanoasis

Cheat sheet should be fixed now

hello.

I am following the codingphase theme for iTerm configuration.

When checking different fonts in nerd-fonts, i cannot find the overpass to download. has it been removed or renamed to something else?

Ryan L McIntyre

@ryanoasis

@worldofpercept_twitter good point, not sure what happened there. You can grab it from here in the mean time: https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/tree/master/patched-fonts/Overpass/Mono

Hi there. Author of Victor Mono here.

Any policy on requiring a readme.md (if present) from the original repo when generating a new patched font? I would appreciate it.

Sergey Kasmy

@SleeplessSloth

guys, can somebody help me understand why patching a font should be necessary? I mean, should correctly configuring fontconfig be the only thing to make everything work? I have already asked that question on reddit with a more concrete example but nobody could answer it
https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/czohun/font_patching/
Any help would be apreciated!

Sergey Kasmy

@SleeplessSloth

Alright, patching is not necessary, got it to work with oure fontconfig and alias prefer

the problem is that nerd font doesn't provide pure monospaced glyphs-only font

only a non-monospaced one

Hi, I was looking for a memory icon, found one in the free font-awesome here: https://fontawesome.com/icons/memory?style=solid, but couldn't found the icon in the nerd-fonts cheatsheet: https://www.nerdfonts.com/cheat-sheet

Aren't all free font-awesome icons supposed to be included in nerd-fonts ?

Sergey Kasmy

@SleeplessSloth

maybe I'm mistaken but the cheatsheet is incomplete

there are lots of icons that are present in the font but not on the cheatsheet(or they're just named differently). I have this one for memory, for instance " ", and it was not present on the cheatsheet, afaik

I installed both FiraCode and the FuraCode NF and it looks like many of the ligatures from FiraCode are missing in FuraCode (but not all). Why is this?

ex. <= gets turned into a ligature in both, but >= only gets turned into a ligature in FiraCode, not FuraCode

kimsagro1

@kimsagro1

Does nerd-fonts allow font requests? Microsoft have just announced their new programming font and it would be nice to see it included: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/cascadia-code/

John Cavanaugh

@cavanaug

Perhaps stupid question, but I noticed that ansi fonts icons are not supported. Is that intentional?

Ryan L McIntyre

@ryanoasis

@rubjo Hey! We do attempt to make sure the original readme is there and proper links to repos, websites and credits to the authors. I see now that Victor Mono readme is missing (this is not typical). I will try to get that fixed! Thanks

Ryan L McIntyre

@ryanoasis

@rubjo ryanoasis/nerd-fonts#388

@kimsagro1 Yes it does, there have been many. You can follow along with Cascadia Code request here: ryanoasis/nerd-fonts#374

@cavanaug Not intentional but likely it's because the source font doesn't have the questioned glyphs. Nerd Fonts does not add (currently) missing standard set glyphs (math, etc.)

Ryan L McIntyre

@ryanoasis

@alexschneider Currently there are issues regarding ligatures, there are some codepoints that currently Nerd Fonts doesn't respect (i.e. is changing codes in NON-private use areas. see ryanoasis/nerd-fonts#365 and ryanoasis/nerd-fonts#57

Aaron

@aaronbell

@ryanoasis I'm a bit confused about something—in looking at the Wiki (https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/wiki/Glyph-Sets-and-Code-Points) specific code pages are mentioned for each icon set, but if I look at fonts that have been built with the NerdFonts patcher, I'm seeing a lot of other glyphs not contained in those unicode ranges being included uniE0CA for example). Which should be considered the definitive "Nerd Fonts glyph set"?

Steve Daly

@spdaly

I'm trying to use the Fira Code Nerd Font in VS Code. What do I set the font family to?

Use a monospaced font? Nerd fonts version 2.0 aren't monospaced iirc

Is this still true?

Hey, I want to patch a font I like (Inconsolata-g) (yes it's different from the Inconsolata variants in the repo). I am seeing the nerdfonts repo is about 5gb, is there any way to download what I need to do the patching without consuming that much bandwidth?

smeggysmeg

@smeggysmeg

How do you uninstall nerd-fonts? I don't see this in the documentation.

Hello. I've been playing around with the font-patcher which has been pretty fun. I'm on a windows machine so getting fontforge to play with python was more difficult than it should have been. Anyway, I've modified it so that fonts are always mapped to the 'complete' values (so i could use a subset of the fonts and have it be compatible with nf). Would this be worth me making a pull request? would anyone find this sort of functionality useful?

@FredHappyface

I can't get my browser to "see" an installed font that I created with the font patcher. Am I correct in thinking that it is the name of the font without spaces with " NF" appended?
