Missing Symbols #2

Open mikelerch opened 3 months ago

mikelerch commented 3 months ago

First of all, great font, looks very nice.

I was wondering, how come some symbols aren't included, such as = for example? Is there a reason for it? When I download V1-ServerMono-Regular.otf, the set of characters is quite limited.

Thanks in advance!

Hey @mikelerch, we are aware that some symbols aren't included. It was a bandwidth issue, but we'll see if we can get to them.

this is a bandwidth issue?

Yes, it might be embarrassing to some, but we're a small team doing these projects for fun.

oh you meant team bandwidth. I thought you meant computer bandwidth, lmao. I thought you were saying you implemented those symbols but then just did not include them in the exports for some file size-related reason!

having the symbols on the website implies that the font includes them even though it doesn't:

in the above, the ones rendered from Server Mono are actually the spaces between the symbols! not a single one of them works with the webfont or even if I make it use the local font instead:

You're right about this and it is misleading, I'll take them out of the site when I push 0.0.3 (unless I get to them)

Took them out in this commit, will find some time to work on these between responsibilities https://github.com/internet-development/www-server-mono/commit/9193968bcbb1cab48cee16520c14891ea4bb63c5
