Add legacy computing box drawing characters from unicode 13 to builtin font #7422

Open kchibisov opened 11 months ago

kchibisov commented 11 months ago

Unicode 13 added a bunch of box drawing characters which we should likely render with our builtin font, since they also should align.

Maybe not all, since but sextants/angles should be pretty simple and the most useful.

sextants are done.

As this issue is still open, I thought I'd inform you here: the internal vertical edges of sextants are misaligned with the edges of left and right half blocks by a pixel.

Paste this test pattern into the terminal, and you can see for yourself:

If it clarifies the issue: I'm running 0.13.2 on Wayland, Arch Linux, with Nvidia hardware.
