Hello, I have chosen a font but it still not show the icon

[eendroroy]

You can try installing one from here Meslo powerline fonts.

Reviving this old thread.

I have installed alien prompt on Mac OS X 13.2.1 (Ventura), including the Meslo powerline fonts but my prompt is still failing to render icons.

I also tried the export ALIEN_USE_NERD_FONT=1 font config with no luck.

Do I have to somehow point alien to the Meslo fonts?

Actually, looking at the source font symbols, they seem broken. even when viewing on web. I will just try overrriding the symbols via ENV variables.

@cevaris

You can try font-hack-nerd-font

@eendroroy thanks for the suggestion. I attempted installing that package with no luck..

I have font-hack-nerd-font installed.

I have ALIEN_USE_NERD_FONT enabled.

But i dont have any symbols rendered...

Here is my config

export ALIEN_USE_NERD_FONT=1
export ALIEN_THEME="soft"
export ALIEN_SECTION_TIME_FORMAT=%H:%M:%S
export ALIEN_SECTIONS_LEFT=(
  exit
  time
  user
  path
  vcs_branch:async
  # vcs_status:async
  # vcs_dirty:async
  newline
  # ssh
  # venv
  prompt
)
source ~/src/zsh-alien/alien.zsh

Can you please try selecting the font in iTerm profile settings?

[cevaris]

That fixed it!

Works in VS Code terminal too.

Thanks!
