Terminal Icons don't display in Windows Terminal #33

Closed newmankyle closed 3 years ago

newmankyle commented 3 years ago

Recently tried installing terminal icons using this script, however I'm not getting any output. Icons still display as empty boxes.

This is what I have:

WSL2 (Ubuntu)
Terminal: Windows Terminal
Shell: Fish
Font: Cascadia Code v2009.021 -- this is the version shipped with Windows Terminal

As far as I know, my font hasn't been patched at all.

fc-list lists the icons-in-terminal ttf file just fine
I ran icons.fish in my shell; running echo $oct_alert results in an empty box...
tried rebooting the terminal session
tried re-running the install script
updated 30-icons.conf with "Cascadia Code" as the family

Not sure what else I'm missing. Any help would be appreciated.

After studying the issue some more, it seems Windows Terminal doesn't support font fallback yet.
