Ligatures on the monospaced version

Open framgeld opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

Hi,

Having ligature support in the monospaced version would be amazing. I currently use the Fira Code font, and after having programmed with a ligature font I don't think I could go back.

I don't have dyslexia (I think), but I have been using the font on my Kindle Oasis... I find it much easier to read than the standard fonts. A programming font with the ligatures would have me won over.

Thanks for your efforts with your font.

I like Fira Code.

It may be some time before I can get ligatures completed on this, but I'll leave this open for a future version.

I use open-dyslexic at work because I can read/trace so much faster with it... I attempted to combine Fira Code's ligatures with it by using ToxicFrog's Ligaturizer here on github, but so far I have not been able to get programs to recognize the ligatures. I'll come back to this later, but it would be nice to wake up one morning and see that open-dyslexic supports ligatures by default.

Is there any news/ development on this request? I would love to use this font in my VScode for programming and I use Font Ligatures which is not in the font yet.
