another try today at getting my fonts working right, and I think that on linux this would be the best approach.\r\nActually patched fonts look blurry and incorrectly sized (correctly sized characters, but insanely small glyphs) on my machine (arch linux currently and on terminator) fallback fontconfig seems to work great, but it's not perfect:\r\nUsing an already powerline-patched font for example (I use Terminess powerline) \r\n\r\n- in vim-devicons some glyphs are misplaced because patching moves them to different places.\r\n![capture2](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/1501930/20314894/2e6f4d34-ab5c-11e6-9414-4c0aa94fe3d7.JPG)\r\n- the same happens with font-linux that clashes with FontAwesome in it's original form so font-linux glyphs aren't available\r\n![capture](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/1501930/20314895/2e725ca4-ab5c-11e6-8ecc-330e070e1e59.JPG)\r\n\r\nATM using a non powerline font (original Terminus, I still love that font!) and having devicons and fontawesome fallback somehow works but the situation is not perfect\r\nAlso some other projects like vim-airline or zsh's powerlevel9k need to be worked out because of different glyphs used so:\r\n\r\nA common \"glyph-library\" that could be used in fallback or for a easier patching could be easier to maintain and also could be shared and supported by other projects\r\n\r\n"}}
