WHAT IS THIS?

This is ProFont TrueType, converted to Windows TrueType format
by Mike Smith, with some tweaks added by "ardu".

Modifications include:
- A Euro character
- Missing characters from the Latin 1 code page
- Full support for CodePage 850. These are mostly the famous
  block/box characters you know from DOS. Very useful if you use
  Mightnight Commander through PuTTY.
- Fixed metrics so that point size of 9 works correctly. Until now
  you had to select 7 to obtain the native point size of 9.
- Added some quick&dirty hinting for point size of 9. Most characters
  now match closely the look of the bitmap version.
  Don't expect it to look good on anything else than Windows...

## Which font?

### TL;DR

* Pick your font family:
  * If you are limited to monospaced fonts (because of your terminal, etc) then pick a font with `Nerd Font Mono` (or `NFM`).
  * If you want to have bigger icons (usually around 1.5 normal letters wide) pick a font without `Mono` i.e. `Nerd Font` (or `NF`). Most terminals support this, but ymmv.
  * If you work in a proportional context (GUI elements or edit a presentation etc) pick a font with `Nerd Font Propo` (or `NFP`).

### Ligatures

Ligatures are generally preserved in the patched fonts.
Nerd Fonts `v2.0.0` had no ligatures in the `Nerd Font Mono` fonts, this has been dropped with `v2.1.0`.
If you have a ligature-aware terminal and don't want ligatures you can (usually) disable them in the terminal settings.

### Explanation

Once you narrow down your font choice of family (`Droid Sans`, `Inconsolata`, etc) and style (`bold`, `italic`, etc) you have 2 main choices:

#### `Option 1: Download already patched font`

 * For a stable version download a font package from the [release page](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases)
 * Or download the development version from the folders here

#### `Option 2: Patch your own font`

 * Patch your own variations with the various options provided by the font patcher (i.e. not include all symbols for smaller font size)
