v3.2.1 Release (2024.04.12)

v3.2.1 Details

This bugfix release is mainly because of the Fira Code progress indicator glyphs. These are used by some applications, and usually could be used via fontfallback from any font (because the codepoints were un-occupied in the Nerd Fonts). But with adding more FontAwesome glyphs we utilized that codepoints for the new glyphs, breaking this common setup. To fix that we keep these codepoints (there are 9 glyphs) free and un-occupied. So the usualy fallback scheme will continue to work.

Please see below for a list of codepoint that change with this release (which were new in 3.2.0), so I count that not really as breaking, because they were just some days ago (accidentally) introduced.

Codepoint shift ⚠️ (only relative to 3.2.0)

  • Reorder some FontAwesome glyphs #1596
    • EE00 - EE0B shifted to EFC3 - EFCE
    • F0E6 shifted to EFC2

v3.0.0 Release (2023.04.30)

v3.0.0 Details

This major release introduces some breaking changes:

Breaking 1: Naming

This release fixes some long standing issues that are due to the naming of the fonts: There is a completely new naming scheme. This might be inconvientient for existing setups, sorry.

  • Some fonts will have Nerd Font in the name while other have it abbreviated as NF. This is needed because some names just were too long. (Same for Nerd Font Mono and NFM.)
  • There are no Windows Compatible fonts anymore. All fonts work on all platforms.
  • The Complete from the font names (and the repo directories) has been dropped (Complete is the new normal).
  • The name parts will be ordered as expected with style and weight last (Somefont Bold Nerd Font -> Somefont Nerd Font Bold).
  • The filename will have no blanks anymore.

Breaking 2: Material Design Icons Codepoints

The old Material Design Icon codepoints are finally dropped. Due to an historic mistake we placed them in between some asiatic glyphs, breaking that script. Since v2.3.0 the (updated and expanded) Material Design Icons have new codepoints in the 5 digit region.

  • Dropped codepoints F500… and class names nf-mdi-*
  • New codepoints F0001… and class names nf-md-*
  • The whole discussions are here: https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/issues/365
  • A translation table is available here: https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/issues/1059#issuecomment-1404891287
  • There are tools out there that probably can update your configuration.

Otherwise this is a ‘Update release’, so now the good stuff:

Updates

  • Update Agave to v37
  • Update Arimo to 1.33
  • Update DaddyTimeMono to 1.2.3
  • Update Fira Mono to 3.206

  • Update MPlus to … current
  • Update Overpass to 3.0.5
  • Update Roboto Mono to 3.0
  • Update Source Code Pro to 2.038
  • Update Terminus to 4.49.2
  • Update Victor Mono to 1.5.4
  • Update the Octicons set to 18.3.0

Features

  • New font ComicShannsMono

  • Repair Panose info if source font has broken data

  • Add option to allow italic-less fonts with oblique
  • Add --debug and --dry to font-patcher
  • Add logging into file to font-patcher
  • Add NERDFONTS environment variable to transport options through gotta-patch-em

Improvements

Fixes

  • Fix baseline to basline distance (line gap) for some fonts
  • Fix weather icons cloud scaling
  • Fix UniqueID of the fonts
  • Fix Bitstream Vera name: Is now Bitstrom Wera due to licensing issue
  • No fix, but: Drop support for Python 2

v2.3.3 Release (2023.01.24)

  • Fix Nerd Fonts Symbols Only metrics 4939ac5 2.3.3

Next Release Outlook

The v3.0.0 release will bring two bigger changes:

Material Design Icons

The Material Design Icons have to move codepoints. Historically we patch them in between F500 - FD46; but part of that range is needed for Chinese and other glyphs. With #773 and Plan 5+ of #365 their new home will be after F0001. And they grow considerably.

The v2.3.x release has both, the ‘old’ and the ‘new’ codepoints to enable you an easier transision. Please change already now your prompts and other uses to the new codepoints. Release v3.0.0 will finally drop the old codepoints (F500 - FD46).

Naming

Naming will also change. The name parts will move to places where they are customarily expected (e.g. weight and style comes last). This will fix some more problems. Probably we will drop the Complete monicker, as … everyone uses the complete versions, it just takes precious space in the names. The details are not fixed yet, follow #1074 to keep up to date.

Details

Remark

This release was even more bumpy then the previous one. Please accept my apologies. Many thanks to all the Issue reporters and pull requesters that help keep this project going!
