>= ligature is too wide, recommend taking advice from FiraCode's style #10

Literally the one reason I can't use this is because >= and <= are too weird looking. But I can't stand fira code because the letters are just too...detailed. Dejavu is a much better looking font.

SSNikolaevich commented 6 years ago

The shape of <= and >= ligatures was designed consistent with U+2264 (lessequal) and U+2265 (greaterequal) glyphs in parent font. All two-symbol wide ligatures was made having the same width deliberately. IMHO, "a <= b" expression has too much empty space printed with Fira Code.

There's no way to get this as an option? The wide >= renders very strangely for me in Webstorm on Windows 10 -- the lines look incorrectly antialiased or something.

Could you provide a screenshot? "Incorrectly antialiased or something" sounds like it has some problems with hinting.

Agreed, >= and <= are way too wide and look pretty strange.

How can I remove this ligature if I fork this repo? It looks really annoying :(
