Difficulties with icons in prompt #8

Hi, I might be missing something fundimental, but it appears that the characters representing items on the prompt are incorrect-ish?

Here's an example:

If I edit the theme in vscode, only certain glyphs render correctly:

I'm wondering if there's a character encoding thing going on with the file maybe?

JanDeDobbeleer commented 3 years ago

Hey @aaronsb, that most likely depends on the font being used. I used nerd fonts Meslo LG M (top of my head).

This shows another bug as well, I need to make the battery prompt for UNIX and Windows too 😅

aaronsb commented 3 years ago

I forgot about Meslo fonts. I've been using Cascadia Code (PL) for a while now.

Time to enumerate /sys/class/power_supply/ ? ;)

JanDeDobbeleer commented 3 years ago

I'll update the README if you can confirm the right font resolves the issue. And I'll create a new issue for the battery indicator 👍🏻

aaronsb commented 3 years ago

Yes, loading Meslo fonts lets the character fallback. Cascadia Code + Meslo FTW!

JanDeDobbeleer commented 3 years ago

So pretty ❤️
