Siji - the Systemd of iconic fonts

Unread post by stark » Sat Mar 21, 2015 7:22 pm

So I have been working on a somewhat new font, started as adding glyphs to stlarch then I had to fix the whole thing.
It's still no where near perfect and will require more effort and time which I will invest when I can, until then
Please feel free to provide feedback, criticsm or request any new glyphs you want to see.

I won't be able to fix or merge new changes for a while due to work but i'll eventually ...

Please Read the Readme before you proceed.

starsky, the top-right wifi icon looks nicest to me when i compare it to the one on the 3rd row from the bottom. however, that one has multiple states whereas the other one doesnt. is there a reason for that?

^ Yeah, I intend to provide glyphs of different sizes, as mentioned it is an incomplete work ;)

^ Sure, Thanks for your feedback ;) You can request additional glyphs and i'll see if I can draw them :)

UPDATE: Changed the name and the repo due to the existence of a font with a similar name ( oh yeah that too is a bitmap font ) Added 65 new glyphs and modified and replaced some existing ones.

^ Thanks :) I'm still curious if everyone is finding the new letterspace and alignment useful or annoying.

Updated Lemonbar Example.

Remember now you need to use the `-f` flag for every font you declare so if you're using say five fonts then:

Code: Select all

lemonbar -p -f font1 -f font2 -f font3 -f font4 -f font5

^^ that actually is not accurate.

Code: Select all

-f $font,$font2,$font3 
is what I've been using.

GitHub 'what's new' thingy wrote:This has the side effect of enabling the user to use fonts whose name contains a comma.
How often does this happen? I haven't come across a font that uses commas yet.

Edit: forgot to sauce quotes
