# Nerd Fonts This is an archived font from the Nerd Fonts release v3.2.1. For more information see: * https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/ * https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases/latest/ # Hasklig Font with ligatures for programming (in Haskell) forked from [Source Code Pro](https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-code-pro). For more information have a look at the upstream website: https://github.com/i-tu/Hasklig Version: 1.2 ## Why `Hasklug` and not `Hasklig`? What's in a name? The reason for the name change is to comply with the SIL Open Font License (OFL), in particular the [Reserved Font Name mechanism][SIL-RFN] Some fonts have parts of their name "reserved" per the [Reserved Font Name mechanism][SIL-RFN]: > No Modified Version of the Font Software may use the Reserved Font > Name(s) unless explicit written permission is granted by the corresponding > Copyright Holder. This restriction only applies to the primary font name as > presented to the users. - The main goals seem to be to: `Avoid collisions`, `Protect authors`, `Minimize support`, and `Encourage derivatives` See the [Reserved Font Name section][SIL-RFN] for additional information ## Which font? ### TL;DR * Pick your font family: * If you are limited to monospaced fonts (because of your terminal, etc) then pick a font with `Nerd Font Mono` (or `NFM`). * If you want to have bigger icons (usually around 1.5 normal letters wide) pick a font without `Mono` i.e. `Nerd Font` (or `NF`). Most terminals support this, but ymmv. * If you work in a proportional context (GUI elements or edit a presentation etc) pick a font with `Nerd Font Propo` (or `NFP`). ### Ligatures Ligatures are generally preserved in the patched fonts. Nerd Fonts `v2.0.0` had no ligatures in the `Nerd Font Mono` fonts, this has been dropped with `v2.1.0`. If you have a ligature-aware terminal and don't want ligatures you can (usually) disable them in the terminal settings. ### Explanation Once you narrow down your font choice of family (`Droid Sans`, `Inconsolata`, etc) and style (`bold`, `italic`, etc) you have 2 main choices: #### `Option 1: Download already patched font` * For a stable version download a font package from the [release page](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases) * Or download the development version from the folders here #### `Option 2: Patch your own font` * Patch your own variations with the various options provided by the font patcher (i.e. not include all symbols for smaller font size) For more information see: [The FAQ](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/wiki/FAQ-and-Troubleshooting#which-font) [SIL-RFN]:http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?item_id=OFL_web_fonts_and_RFNs#14cbfd4a
