I use fedora with i3-gaps and I want to use different font than monospace.
I donwloaded this realease of iosevka font iosevka-term-ss01-3.0.0-rc.4
Then I coppied all .tff files to folders: ~/.local/share/fonts
and to the /usr/share/fonts/iosevka
.
And at the end run command $ sudo fc-cache -fv
to reload fonts.
Now the thing is how to put these fonts to use. I configure my ST terminal via .Xdefaults:
...
!! Set a default font and font size as below:
st.font: Monospace-10;
! st.termname: st-256color
! st.borderpx: 2
...
What should I write instead of Monospace-10
?
I tried name of .tff file – text changed but to terrible form.
Maybe adding “config file” to /etc/fonts/conf.d
?
Second question: How to add this font to the whole system?
Could it break possibly something (i3blocks)?
Thanks in advance for your answers
P.S. Bonus question: Has anyone clue how iosevka releases works? Which release/file should I use?
