1 year ago I looked into this a bit more, this functionality does work but the issue is that all ligatures aren't implemented with calt. For example, := <$> </> -- work as expected. So this feature request is an ask to implement all ligatures with calt.

1 year ago There is no standard for which characters belong to calt and it's up to each typeface author to decide which go in.
Can you provide an exhaustive list of the missing combinations?

1 year ago Note that on MonoLisa only spacing altering combinations are behind calt. The rest of the ligatures are behind liga so may have to enable that set separately in your terminal to access them all.

1 year ago Hi @bebraw thank you for the quick reply. I now have a new found respect for fonts 😄 . I looked into FiraCode a bit and ended up forking the repo to provide a list of the ligatures which belong to calt. The documentation and video demo is here: https://github.com/mikesmithgh/FiraCode/blob/calt-test/calt-test/README.md. I have the files attached with the characters for the ligatures and calts in the forked repo. But, I'll provide the list below as well.

1 year ago We had a quick chat about this. A couple of notes:
liga to calt as this would help with targets like MacOS Terminal.mikesmithgh

1 month ago I'd like to request that "all ligatures are turned on when calt is on" not be the default.
I juggle both MonoLisa and Monaspace Neon in my Visual Studio config, and the editor picks the first one in the list:
"editor.fontFamily": "MonoLisa, 'Monaspace Neon', …, monospace",For ligature settings, I settled on
"editor.fontLigatures": "'calt' on, 'liga' off",This turns on the texture healing provided by Monaspace's calt, but keeps MonaLisa's ligatures that turn != into something that looks more like ≠off, a feature I've tried and disliked strongly.
If these ligatures were dumped into the calt feature, then I'd either have to put up with confusing ligatures in MonoLisa or the lack of texture healing in Monaspace, depending on what font I have available.
What feature are you proposing?
Kitty has a feature to disable ligatures only when the cursor is over them. (See https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/conf/#opt-kitty.disable_ligatures)
I have MonaLisa - Plus installed on OSX and I am using Kitty with the following setting:
When I put my cursor over a ligature, it does not disable it and display the regular characters.
I have tested this with
FiraCode Nerd Font Monoand it works.FiraCode Nerd Font Mono:MonaLisa:
