Consolas font patched with Nerd Fonts.
Download all fonts and install them, then configure your vim plugin of choice (vim-airline, lightline.vim or powerline) to use the glyphs.
To save disk space and bandwidth, the nerd-fonts submodule is configured to shallow clone (--depth=1).
It is still quite large (~4GB) in size, so do not clone this repo unless you want to patch the fonts from source.
The commands below will clone this repo including the nerd-fonts submodule and patch the fonts.
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/ongyx/consolas-nf
cd consolas-nf
./patch.sh
Make sure you are running this inside of a WSL2 shell and fontforge is installed.
If you are using Git Bash/MSYS2 the script should work but it is untested.
For detailed information about the changes between Nerd Font v1.2.0 and v3.3.0, please refer to the Nerd Font changelog.
With the update from Nerd Font v1.2.0 to v3.3.0, the naming convention for patched fonts has changed. As a result, the font name has been updated from:
| Old name | New name |
|---|---|
| Consolas NF | Consolas Nerd Font Mono |
If you are using Consolas NF in your editor, terminal, or configuration files, you will need to update your font references accordingly.
Before (old version 1.2.0):
"editor.fontFamily": "Consolas NF"After (new version 3.3.0):
"editor.fontFamily": "Consolas Nerd Font Mono"Between Nerd Font v1.2.0 and v3.3.0, several glyphs have been changed or removed.
