custom_block_glyphs = true#

When set to true (the default), wakterm will compute its own idea of what the glyphs in the following unicode ranges should be, instead of using glyphs resolved from a font.

Ideally this option wouldn't exist, but it is present to work around a hinting issue in freetype.

BlockWhat
U2500Box Drawing
U2580unicode block elements
U1FB00Symbols for Legacy Computing (Sextants and Smooth mosaic graphics)
U1CC00Symbols for Legacy Computing Supplement (Block mosaic terminal graphic characters)
U2800Braille Patterns
PowerlinePowerline triangle, curve and diagonal glyphs
Git Branch SymbolsCustom branch drawing symbols for rendering DAGs such as Git branch structure
Progress Bar SymbolsFixed and indeterminate progress bar elements

You can set this to false to use the block characters provided by your font selection.
