Describe the bug Certain characters, specifically spaces and the round circle icon, are not rendering correctly. Spaces show up as squares while icons show up as question marks.

To Reproduce Run ticker with the default ~/.ticker.yaml file per the example in https://github.com/achannarasappa/ticker#configuration.

Expected behavior Characters should not be rendering incorrectly

You will need to use a font that supports the unicode characters used by ticker. Have a look at the readme for more info.

I use DejaVu Sans Mono with ConEmu on Windows 10 and the proper characters are rendered.
