🐞 Missing Terminal font
Description
Hi guys, @austincondiff, Based on my observations, it appears that the font is not functioning properly for OhMyZsh and Powerlevel 10k themes. To address this issue, we need to carefully review the user's primary Terminal configurations and make use of them accordingly. For that, we require a function capable of searching for Terminal Configurations. One possible solution to this problem is to install the 'MesloLGS NF' font or create the aforementioned function.
Best regards NH
To Reproduce
- Use iTerm2 and set Powerlevel 10k as color theme
- Open CodeEdit (newest Version)
- see issue in the terminal tab
Expected Behavior
The icons should be visible instead of boxes with question marks
Version Information
CodeEdit: 0.0.3-alpha (36) macOS: 14 RC2 Xcode: 15 RC

Can you provide more clarifications on this? There is other fonts supported for our integrated terminal. What you want is more like import configuration from other editors?
Sorry @Cubik65536 Forgot this issue. I‘m answering it in a few hours because I‘m now going to sleep (it‘s almost 1 am here in Italy)

@N3v1 I'm still waiting for your response ;)
I thought about a function that looks for the font used by the main terminal and uses it. So the user has to allow that CE can see the .zshrc file (if possible). Or sth like that. @Cubik65536 here. I'm sorry, I forgot to reply to this issue. I just got back home yesterday

The .zshrc file doesn't contain any font information.
So you want CodeEdit to get what font are used by terminal apps like Terminal.app or iTerm.app and set that as default one?
Personally I don't think that this is necessary as neither vscode nor other similar editors does that. The user might want to set different font for different apps (especially between terminal emulator app and an text editor). And to solve the issue that terminal of CE shows [?], user just have to set the p10k compatible font with CE settings.
Is this a CodeEdit or SwiftTerm issue? I can imagine that SwiftTerm just doesn't know what to do, so it renders there questionmarks. Keep in mind that it is a emulator, not an embedded terminal.
Yeah I think so because I also changed the Terminal font in CE in the settings but nothing happens
@N3v1 Oh okay I entirely misunderstood the issue. In fact what you want to talk is CodeEdit terminal not applying a font configured in settings. I’ll investigate a bit.

There is definitely some strange things happening...

In summary...
- I simply toggle off Settings → Terminal → Use text editor font
- Characters are very spaced out even though the editor and the terminal still use the same font settings.
- In Settings → Terminal → Font, I choose a Powerlevel 10k font, in this case "MesloLGS NF"
- Font remains the same (System Font) despite my selection, however characters are now properly spaced
- I set Font to something that doesn't support Powerlevel 10k, in this case "Input Mono"
- Powerlevel 10k glyphs are applied while other characters are of the font I chose
- I set Font back to my Powerlevel 10k font, "MesloLGS NF"
- Everything looks as it should
