Describe the feature

edit Currently there is no setting to customise the spacing between lines in terminal and UI looks like this which is very cluttered. Screenshot 2024-08-22 at 9 41 10 PM

Settings to customise spacing between letters would really help

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help present your vision of the feature

spacing between lines

What you're looking for is something like:

  "terminal": {
     "line_height": {
       "custom": 1.5
     }
  },

It was documented in the default settings, but was missing from the web documentation: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/89f14a3dfb6354ca1f7cc98d4175d00dfb9227f1/assets/settings/default.json#L668-L680

Not something we currently support so I've converted this to an enhancement request for that feature.
