Still no terminus patched font ? :(

Not yet sorry 😞

Related see #86

Could you add an error message to the install script? Currently, running it gives:

(master|✓); git log | head -1
commit c232226d395b6c067a4c9ccd65a6193ac3d7ffef
(master|✓); ./install.sh Terminus
Terminus font installed to /home/usr/.local/share/fonts
(master|✓); echo $?
0
(master|✓); ls /home/usr/.local/share/fonts
total 0

Which is kinda confusing…

[kierun]

Not to pester you but is there any chance of a fix soon?

[ryanoasis]

@TheRizzen Terminus (Terminess) is going to be included in 0.9.0 (the TTF version), it seems to work fine but the only problem is if you do not have antialiasing enabled: #86

@kierun Really sorry about the delayed reply. Can you please try the install script again? You should have more luck with the much improved install script

Terminus by the way isn't currently being patched in master (that will be available in 0.9.0).

Here is my test of this:

ls ~/.local/share/fonts/** | grep Term | wc -l
0
./install.sh Terminus

@ryanoasis Thank you for your time. In no way or shape do I mind a delay! Here is what I ran:

(master|✓); git log | head -3

However, I think I know what the problem might be:

(master|✓); ls -a patched-fonts/Terminus
total 24K
4.0K ./  4.0K ../  8.0K LICENSE.txt  4.0K README.md  4.0K README.rst

So, I have no fonts there. Should I have downloaded them myself or should they be in the repo? GutHub suggest that they are not there in master.

[ryanoasis]

Yeah so the Terminus fonts I generated yesterday but I haven't commited yet. I will try to do that later today and I will make sure to ping here. Thanks

[ryanoasis]

Pushed the source fonts and the patched fonts (TTF version of Terminus) on 0.9.0 branch

@kierun Go ahead and give it a try if you want. Thanks.

Looks good to me! ☺ Is there a screen shot of some fonts glyths I can do so as to verify that it all works as expected?

Many thanks indeed!

PS: Note to anyone reading this and getting weird errors: ** is a zsh thing.
