I seem to be missing a lot of symbols

[jacobrreed]

Describe the bug Not sure why but I am missing a lot of symbols it seems, I am using Nerd Font Symbols for symbol map as descibed in documentation, does the docs need updated to include more symbols or is that on us as the user to implement them all separately?

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

symbol_map U+e000-U+e00a,U+ea60-U+ebeb,U+e0a0-U+e0c8,U+e0ca,U+e0cc-U+e0d4,U+e200-U+e2a9,U+e300-U+e3e3,U+e5fa-U+e6b1,U+e700-U+e7c5,U+f000-U+f2e0,U+f300-U+f372,U+f400-U+f532,U+f0001-U+f1af0 Symbols Nerd Font Mono

Additional context I have also tried adding another users symbol map but it still is missing a lot of symbols:

[kovidgoyal]

Those have nothing to do with nerd fonts, they are regular unicode codepoints. You need to install some font that has them, popular choice is symbola or unifont (though that is very low quality)

[jacobrreed]

Ah ok thanks!

[jacobrreed]

Is there a way to specify Symbola as the default fallback font for symbol_map for all codepoints not defined in config?

[kovidgoyal]

For things not in symbol_map you setup fallbacks in your OS, kityt uses OS APIs to find fallbacks.

[jacobrreed]

ah seems not possible on newer version of MacOS rip. oh well, i only use this work, I use arch for home so be it
