Fonts not supporting emojis

[demostanis]

I've been trying out Pakku, it worked fine installing a module, sadly it showed a square instead of a pretty butterfly as my current Terminal's font does not support emojis. Is there any way to disable them? Gently asking Pakku isn't working: pakku please nopretty dont add zef Thank you

Hi,

If current terminal fonts doesn't support emojis you can override the log levels names in <pakuu-dir>/pakku.cnf file, in my system it's in ~/.pakku/pakku.cnf (by uncommenting the log section in the config file and changing the names to what you prefer):

< log >
  trace name T:   # Trace
  debug name D:   # Debug
  info  name I:   # Info
  warn  name W:   # Warn
  error name E:   # Error
  fatal name F:   # Fatal

  # trace color reset
  # debug color green
  # info  color blue
  # warn  color yellow
  # error color magenta
  # fatal color red

> pakku please nopretty dont add zef
I: PRC: ｢zef｣
I: TST: ｢zef:ver<0.11.7>:auth<github:ugexe>:api<0>｣

Thanks. What about adding a comment to resources/rakku.cnf telling that changing info name I: will remove the emojis, or replacing name by prefix? Currently, it's not very self-explaining.

Thanks, That makes sense. changed "name" to "prefix" with this commit

+* In case your terminal font does not support emojis, you can replace them by changing `prefix` values in the `< log >` section of your config file (usually `~/.pakku/pakku.cnf`):
+```
+< log >
+  trace prefix TRACE:
+  debug prefix DEBUG:
+```

 * `Pakku` uses [Pakku::RecMan](https://github.com/hythm7/Pakku-RecMan) recommendation manager to obtain distributions `META` info and archives.

 USAGE

Here's a proposal of mention in the README.
