- icebraining 15y agoThis is what I've been using (after more than a year with DejaVu Sans Mono) and I sometimes still stop to admire my terminal ;) Using #e8e8e8 instead of pure white for the text color helps too.
- mfukar 15y agoDoesn't seem to be able to display the block characters neither on PuTTY, gvim on Windows or my Linux terminals/editors. Am I missing something obvious here?
- andrewcooke 15y agoschumacher clean works (i can cut + paste the title of this post to my shell) - it's a bitmap font that's been in X forever. and has anyone worked out how to get recent cpu load into their bash prompt yet?
- jablan 15y agoLiberation Mono and Terminus both work.
- seabee 15y agoYou'll have difficulty on Windows if you use PuTTY, since it doesn't do font substitution.
- davidjhall 15y agoAre there any Windows SSH programs that display? I get nothing but garbage or "." characters for any of the symbols.
