Anonymous Pro for vim-powerline

anonymous Pro-Powerline.ttf

Install vim-powerline. Open"Anonymouse Pro-Powerline.ttf" and install it, then in your .vimrc put:

set guifont = set guifont=Anonymous\ Pro\ for\ Powerline:h13

This doesn't include bold or italicized, this is just the regular font.

Edit: see @tlhunter's comment on the correct line to put in your ~/.vimrc

set guifont=Anonymous\ Pro\ for\ Powerline:h13

@tlhunter Ah, I can't type. Thanks for the correction!

No prob. The funny thing is the command would work, but would reset something else, took me a few mins to debug.

I tried to patch the font myself and I just tried the font in this page, but the result is the same with both fonts http://i48.tinypic.com/2r3jj1y.jpg

Anyone with a solution? :(

By the way I have the same problem on my linux box

@vheon Sorry I have no clue why that happened. I will let you know as soon as I find out.. Mine seemed normal in MacVim, which version are you using? Did other patched fonts work fine for you?

I just tred to patch Courier New and all went just fine. Anyway I tried to repatch Anonymous Pro and this was the output:

@vheon Yes that was the same output I received as well. Which version of Vim/OS are you using?

MacVim 7.3 (64) on Mac OS X 10.7.3... anyway when I patched Courier New I get a different output: the part where here said

The following table(s) is the font have been ignored by FontForge

doesn't show and I get more of

The glyph named name is mapped to U+####.
  But its name indicates it should be mapped to U+####.

@vheon Did you try using your self-patched Courier New? Is it the same result or does it work well? My impression is that those glyph mapping problems shouldn't matter. But I could be wrong.

Yes I tried it.

This is the comparison between the two font on the same file:

@vheon Hmm, I don't have enough knowledge on why this occurs. Please do let me know if you manage to fix it and update this gist. Thanks!

Seems to be a problem with the font size used. I changed it from set guifont=Anonymous\ Pro\ for\ Powerline:h13 to set guifont=Anonymous\ Pro\ for\ Powerline:h14 and it fixes the problem.

EDIT: Also change your terminal font to 14pt Anonymous Pro.

@jridgewell: I'm glad if it fix this problem on your machine, but unfortunately it doesn't on mine :(
