Save mikkeloscar/2416601 to your computer and use it in GitHub Desktop.
I believe it should be
set guifont=Terminus\ for\ Powerline\ 8
That doesn't work for me. I get an ugly version of the Terminus font when doing that.
Yup. Me too, but at least I get the characters.
Otherwise, Terminus looks neat, but it's the unpatched version, e.g. no characters. What about you?
When I use the unpatched version from the repositories and I have the patched version in my ~/.fonts/ dir I get the special chars in the Powerline. This only works for Gvim though, not terminal vim. That might be do to terminal settings though.
This setup works on both my Desktop and my laptop both running Arch Linux.
Fair enough. I was trying to get it working in Terminal, but failed. I don't insist on having fancy characters in terminal vim, since I rarely use it, so I gave up on it.
I tried to set this as the default font in Konsole, but the text looked blurry so I gave up. However, when I opened vim in Konsole some time later (using default Terminus font), it just worked.
Not sure what did the trick - I followed the instructions above (on Arch Linux) except that I didn't add anything to my .vimrc. Here's a screenshot: http://imgur.com/Am1Us
Is there something new to get the Terminus font working with Powerline? I have the ~/.fonts/Terminus-Powerline.ttf now and did fc-cache -vf ~/.fonts but anyway if using the default Terminus font or the Terminus-Powerline, the characters are invalid.
Works for me, on Ubuntu and Raspian, for terminal tmux and vim.
It's a badly made .ttf IIRC, it only looks good at size 12.
This has only been tested with gvim.
All you need to do is install the Terminus font.
(form Archlinux you would do)
And then add this font to
~/.fonts/and runfc-cache -vfAdd Terminus to
.vimrcNow the speciel chars from Terminus-poweline will be used on the vim-powerline
Adding Terminus-powerline.ttf to
.vimrcresults in an ugly font for me.
