Powerline fonts
===============

This repository contains pre-patched and adjusted fonts for usage with
the `Powerline <https://github.com/powerline/powerline>`_ statusline plugin.

Installation
------------

Run ``./install.sh`` to install all Powerline Fonts or see the documentation_ for details.

.. _documentation: https://powerline.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installation/linux.html#fonts-installation

Quick installation
------------------

If you are running a Debian or Ubuntu based Linux distribution, there should
be a package available to install the Powerline Fonts with the following command:
::
	sudo apt-get install fonts-powerline

For fedora (tested on 28) or redhat based Linux distribution, there should also be a package available to install with the following command:
::
	sudo dnf install powerline-fonts
	
On other environments, you can copy and paste these commands to your terminal. Comments are fine too.
::
    # clone
    git clone https://github.com/powerline/fonts.git --depth=1
    # install
    cd fonts
    ./install.sh
    # clean-up a bit
    cd ..
    rm -rf fonts

Uninstall
---------

Run ``./uninstall.sh`` to uninstall all Powerline Fonts. You can also copy
the quick installation commands changing only the line ``./install.sh`` to
``./uninstall.sh``.

In both cases, please make sure you are working with the exact same version
of Powerline fonts you had checked out while installing.

======================================= ========================= ====================================

iTerm2 users need to set both the Regular font and the Non-ASCII Font in
"iTerm > Preferences > Profiles > Text" to use a patched font (per `this issue`__).

Fontconfig
----------

In some distributions, Terminess Powerline is ignored by default and must be 
explicitly allowed. A fontconfig file is provided which enables it. Copy `this
file <https://github.com/powerline/fonts/blob/master/fontconfig/50-enable-terminess-powerline.conf>`_
from the fontconfig directory to your home folder under ``~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d`` 
(create it if it doesn't exist) and re-run ``fc-cache -vf``.
