# 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. |
