@ryanwarsaw Thanks for sharing

Just a heads up: this is meant for running on Windows, right?
The shell option points to Windows CMD and it was throwing error execvp(3) failed: No such file or directory

Removing that specific line solved the problem.

@atmonello I think the file won't exist if you don't have the Windows SubSystem for Linux enabled

@atmonello yes, this is for windows running the first version of Windows Subsystem for Linux. As I don't use any longer hyper.js I haven't updated it for a long while

Thanks! This works great for OSX. I had to add webGLRenderer: false to my existing config.

@ryanwarsaw I updated hyper.js with the settings below and I couldn't get the Fira Code or MesloLGL font to work. The version of hyper that is installed is 3.2.0

module.exports = {
  config: {
    fontFamily: '"MesloLGL Nerd Font Bold", "Fira Code Light", Menlo, "DejaVu Sans Mono", Consolas, "Lucida Console", monospace',
    webGLRenderer: false,
  },
  plugins: [
    "hyper-font-ligatures"
  ],
};

I want to make the exa --icons -la command icons work, today it appears as an unknown character.

In Ubuntu 20.04 default terminal it's already working

@XavierJece I ended up switching back to iTerm2, I don't see anything in your configuration that looks wrong - I would make sure you're using a patched font (it looks like you are), you may also try to after your entry for the bold font, import the regular version. May be possible that the bold version doesn't have all the glyphs you're needing, good luck!

This part of his configuration may also be useful for you:

// custom css to embed in the terminal window
    termCSS: `
    x-screen x-row {
        font-variant-ligatures: initial;
    }
    `,

I was wrestling with this today. I'm using Hyper on Windows 10 Pro. For others who might be wrestling with this, I also was having issues where the font would create tiny boxes with question marks. Turns out it was because my version of Windows 10 Pro was not activated. I found this out by trying to search for Fonts in the settings, and was unable to search for any of the Nerd Fonts I thought I had downloaded. Activating Windows 10 Pro fixed the problem as soon as I reloaded.
