# NOTE: This isn't the most portable script in the world. For instance, 937 is a magic number. It is just the

# lazy to make the script go and look everytime I invoked the script.
# You need to have read and write permissions for this file.

# That might not be the most elegant solution, but it worked.

font pango:Noto Sans 11
# This font is widely installed, provides lots of unicode glyphs, right-to-left
# text rendering and scalability on retina/hidpi displays (thanks to pango).
#font pango:DejaVu Sans Mono 8
# Before i3 v4.8, we used to recommend this one as the default:
# font -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-C-70-iso10646-1
# The font above is very space-efficient, that is, it looks good, sharp and
# clear in small sizes. However, its unicode glyph coverage is limited, the old
# X core fonts rendering does not support right-to-left and this being a bitmap
# font, it doesn’t scale on retina/hidpi displays.
