Hello, I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to add additional fonts to CoreShell. Under Preferences --> Font --> [Change] there is a pre-defined list. I'm trying to SSH into a server that's set up to use the Powerline shell, which expects to have a font available with custom symbols. Without …

It's not a predefined list, Core Shell list all fonts you installed in your Mac. I use Powerline fonts for quite some time. [image] Download Powerline fonts and execute install.sh in the package, then restart Core Shell, the Powerline fonts should be listed in Core Shell font panel. Kindly Regar…

@yang , Thanks for your reply. :slight_smile: I was very surprised to realize I should be seeing all installed fonts in Core Shell. Mine has always looked like this: [image] I had assumed it might because I've installed via Setapp. Before I try to install the Powerline fonts (thanks for the tip…

Forgot to mention: Core Shell filters system installed fonts that suitable for terminal or programming, that is, the fixed pitch fonts. This may misleading you see it as a predefined list :smiley: Kindly Regards, Yang

Thanks for the extra info. I'd previously used Font Book to install the patched version of Meslo from the link you provided, before I posted this thread, just to see if it would work. iTerm sees it, but CoreShell doesn't. I barely know how to use Font Book since I open it about once a year, so I'm…

I didn't know that fonts installed by Font Book is not visible for Core Shell, thanks a lot for telling. I'll do some tests and try to find out what's going on. Also, the Powerline fonts are planed to embed into Core Shell in next release, as long as there are no license issues.

Thanks for doing further testing on this. I had to install a different patched version of the Meslo font for powerlevel10k (a ZSH theme), and Core Shell saw that without issue after being installed via Font Book. I did have to quit and restart Core Shell to get it to pick up the Powerlevel font. I…

Core Shell 3 embeds a part of Powerline fonts. While I were dealing with Powerline fonts, I noticed that not all Powerline fonts were patched properly. For example, Meslo Slashed for Powerline and Terminus for Powerline could not recognized by Core Shell, since they lack fixed-width font attribute. …

Yang, Thanks for the follow up message explaining how the fonts work (or in some cases, don’t work). I had some server-side issues with Powerline and didn’t have time to debug them, so I ended up switching to Powerlevel10k (a ZSH/Oh-My-ZSH theme), which uses its own glyphs and custom font. Next t…

Any updates on this? I would like to switch from iTerm to Core Shell but I need the fonts working. I have no issue with iTerm, ohmyzsh with POWERLINE10K work fine. [core-shell-fonts]

Core Shell supports Powerline fonts since version 3.0: [image] Which zsh theme are you using? Could you please send me a copy of your customized zsh configuration, so that I can reproduce it? Thank you, Yang
