You ( Mr. Octavian ) asked me: > What do you know about Linux ? Much more than you and Scotty Doty, apparently. Scott Doty's façade/lies have been exposed. "DejaVu Sans Mono" has no Asian glyphs, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. [ 'ツ' is katakana, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ is a kaomoji ] It has no doubleWide glyphs; instead, it has a narrow set of crude, HalfHeight glyphs. Too crude, "MS Mincho" is _much_ better. "OCR A" ( Optical Character Recognition ) is best for coding; because 1 doesn't look like l, O doesn't look like 0, etc. "Segoe UI Symbol" has Emojies. And so on. "rxvt-unicode" doesn't mix and match fonts; so you can't specify which glyphs, from which fonts, should be used.
