Character/Font size adjustment? #36

Running this in Terminator. I can't seem to find a way to increase the size of the characters. I have adjusted the font size in the settings menu for Terminator and they are fine. When I start Unimatrix the characters are much smaller. Searching hasn't helped. Didn't see anything in the help menu. Have I missed something? thanks.

Try running with "unimatrix -l o". That should run without any Unicode characters. Is the size OK then?

Your default font is likely missing characters and you don't have a suitable fallback font installed.
Terminator is probably falling back to a font that doesn't play well with it. I recommend installing more font packs for your distro. Particularly east Asian fonts.

I noticed that running the katakana and alphabet together shows the katakana is smaller compared to the alphabet. So then maybe other east Asian fonts my display larger than what I already have installed? Not sure how to change the default Asian font. I did notice that in the "help file" it lists the katakana as "half width". I wonder if that is why it appears smaller than the alphabet?
