Resize fonts relatively #23

Open simmel opened 4 years ago

simmel commented 4 years ago

7 fixed so we resize all fonts specified but we resize them all to the same size.

When you specify multiple fonts some of them might be different sizes, e.g:

urxvt.font: xft:Inconsolata:pixelsize=12,xft:Symbola:size=8,xft:Noto Emoji:size=8

How to

Split up update_font_size in:

get_updated_font_size which calculates the font size we're supposed to set for a given font
set_font_size which sets the font size for a given font
And do something like $current =~ s/$regex/set_font_size(get_updated_font_size($something?))/ge if ($newsize > 0); I can't exactly remember the syntax and how to get the match into the function.

There are others who also has noticed that this is a problem but solved it another way.

+1 Some very annoying people shit emojis everywhere and urxvt handles them badly or not at all. One workaround (that itself is a failure) is to use Symbola at half the size. (too small to fluently recognize, but at least it displays something)

Not a perl whiz or urxvt config guru or I'd give it a shot myself.
