Describe the bug

Terminal font is borked. Character spacing is too wide.

Additional information

This was immediately after downloading and opening Lapce.

Should change the description to: Default Terminal Font should be Monospace. You can set a monospace font in the settings and the problem should disappear.

Just tried that. I used `Command`+`,` to open the settings pane and tried to set the font to `Monospace`, but opening a new terminal window didn't do anything. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to "save" the settings somehow, but I couldn't figure out how. The settings pane itself actually seems a little bit glitchy on my machine, with some parts at the bottom being cut off.

This issue is fixed in nightly where the default font is set to monospace and a monospace font is correctly used.

does this need to be closed?

I don't think so. Setting it to monospace kind of works (the text is tiny and not Unicode so not really, but it's barely usable); but manually setting it to an installed monospace font goes back to the state shown in the screenshot.

Oddly, Consolas works properly 🤔 so maybe the issue is something else than the obvious? Like, not finding installed fonts, or somehow not acknowledging them as monospace?

Some of the fonts I tried: Inconsolata, Noto Mono, Roboto Mono, Source Code Pro, JetBrains Mono

Fonts that do work: DejaVu Sans Mono, Liberation Mono, Consolas
