Ligatures are gone in WezTerm after upgrading to JuliaMono 0.055

[piechologist]

After running brew upgrade I got JuliaMono 0.055. Now, WezTerm prints the distinct ASCII characters |> and -> instead of the ligatures. Also, ss05 for the lighter asterisk and cv03 for the pronounced tilde don't work anymore. The Julia logos e801 and e802 are missing, too.

Everything still works fine in the Zed editor, though. Weird.

I tricked homebrew into installing JuliaMono 0.054 and the issue was resolved. Upgraded again to 0.055 and the issue came up again.

macOS 12.7.4 Monterey WezTerm 20240203-110809-5046fc22

Let me know if you need more information and thanks in advance!

I guess this is related to #208.

In your config, you’ll need “assume_emoji_presentation=false” because Wezterm won’t use JuliaMono (because it contains a colored glyph).

Thank you for the quick response!

I'm afraid the issue is caused by something else. I changed my config to:

    font = wezterm.font_with_fallback {
        {
            family = 'JuliaMono',
            assume_emoji_presentation = false,
            harfbuzz_features = { 'ss05', 'ss13', 'cv03' },
        },
        'Apple Color Emoji',
    },

and the issue persists. I'm sure WezTerm uses JuliaMono (I checked r and g and they do look like JuliaMono 😃).

When I switch to assume_emoji_presentation = true I get some other fallback font (definitely not JuliaMono 😱).

Check that you’re not picking up JuliaMono-Latin by default. (delete it) Otherwise- it works for me 🤔

That and assume_emoji_presentation=false did the trick! I don't even need assume_emoji_presentation.

Thank you for the help and for this great font!
