WHAT IS THIS?
|
|
|
|
This is ProFont TrueType, converted to Windows TrueType format
|
|
by Mike Smith, with some tweaks added by "ardu".
|
|
|
|
Modifications include:
|
|
- A Euro character
|
|
- Missing characters from the Latin 1 code page
|
|
- Full support for CodePage 850. These are mostly the famous
|
|
block/box characters you know from DOS. Very useful if you use
|
|
Mightnight Commander through PuTTY.
|
|
- Fixed metrics so that point size of 9 works correctly. Until now
|
|
you had to select 7 to obtain the native point size of 9.
|
|
- Added some quick&dirty hinting for point size of 9. Most characters
|
|
now match closely the look of the bitmap version.
|
|
Don't expect it to look good on anything else than Windows...

## Which font?
|
|
|
|
### TL;DR
|
|
|
|
0. Pick your font family and then select from the `'complete'` directory.
|
|
* Are you on Windows? Pick a font with the suffix `'Windows Compatible'`
|
|
* Are you limited to mono fonts (because of your terminal, etc)? Pick a font with the suffix `'Mono'`
|
|
|
|
### Explanation
|
|
|
|
Once you narrow done your font choice of family (`Droid Sans`, `Inconsolata`, etc) and style (`bold`, `italic`, etc) you have 2 main choices:
|
|
* download an already patched font from the `complete` folder
|
|
* This is most likely the one you want. It includes **all** of the glyphs from all of the glyph sets. Only caution here is that some fonts have glyphs in the _same_ code point so to include everything some had to be moved to alternate code points.
|
|
* patch your own variations with the various options provided by the font patcher (see each font's readme for full list of combinations available)
|
|
* This contains a list of _all permutations_ of the various glyphs. E.g. You want the font with only [Octicons][octicons] or you want the font with just [Font Awesome][font-awesome] and [Devicons][vorillaz-devicons]. The goal is to provide every combination possible in this folder.
