Problem Description

Monaspice fonts are heavier than other, comparable fonts. src I am always a fan of light fonts, using the "Light" version normally. I'd like to use the "ExtraLight" version of Monaspace Argon, but it is not contained in nerdfonts.

Desired Solution

Add "ExtraLight" Version to monaspice fonts.

Same question as this: https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/issues/1433#issuecomment-1822463500

Ok, I ll add this now but will come only on next release. Can put the prepatched archive here if that helps?

Next release is like ... after the summer ... assuming northern hemisphere I mean, so September or something

@Finii yes, this would help a lot! (I use nixos, slightly altered packages are among the easier things ;) )

After commit 264c7383e61f49eaf6aa62c2d1314626b3c0db82, running update.sh and clearing out 'normal' source fonts:

$ NERDFONTS="--makegroups 4 --debug 2" ./gotta-patch-em-all-font-patcher\!.sh -jv /Monaspace
$ ./archive-fonts.sh Monaspace

Monaspace.tar.xz.gz Only ExtraLight, double archive because ..., 5 MB

Then self-patching is also easy ;-q

Geee, this AI shit is not worth any try... Tell me something that's not obvious. In a previous answer it suggests using a warez platfporm to share the xz archives instead of suggesting zipping the xz, as I did ;-D

NO, we do not add

• Programming ligatures (e.g., !==, =>, and >>=) for improved code readability
• Symbols for various languages, such as Japanese, Korean, and Chinese characters
• Mathematical and scientific symbols
• Emoji and other Unicode characters

Well, all is Unicode so the last one is only a half lie.

Sorry, who? That persons's not even on the contributors list...

Thank you. Never mind, I'll use a traditional search engine next time.
