Missing Symbols

[mikelerch]

First of all, great font, looks very nice.

I was wondering, how come some symbols aren't included, such as = for example? Is there a reason for it?
When I download V1-ServerMono-Regular.otf, the set of characters is quite limited.

Thanks in advance!

Hey @mikelerch, we are aware that some symbols aren't included. It was a bandwidth issue, but we'll see if we can get to them.

this is a bandwidth issue?

[jimmylee]

Yes, it might be embarrassing to some, but we're a small team doing these projects for fun.

oh you meant team bandwidth. I thought you meant computer bandwidth, lmao. I thought you were saying you implemented those symbols but then just did not include them in the exports for some file size-related reason!

having the symbols on the website implies that the font includes them even though it doesn't:

in the above, the ones rendered from Server Mono are actually the spaces between the symbols! not a single one of them works with the webfont or even if I make it use the local font instead:

You're right about this and it is misleading, I'll take them out of the site when I push 0.0.3 (unless I get to them)

Took them out in this commit, will find some time to work on these between responsibilities 9193968

% symbol would be amazing too!

[jimmylee]

Thanks for pointing that out!

[jimmylee]

@Achuttarsing - thanks for handling this <3

[mikelerch]

I think another somewhat urgent one, at least for me, would be the dollar sign $.
Hope next time you find some time it can be added too.

Appreciate all work on this awesome font. I have been trying to use it for some ASCII arts and noticed that some frequently-used characters are missing:

|
~
<
>
`
$

I believe these are the only missing pieces before people adopting this font for everyday usage

[jimmylee]

Thanks @mikelerch and @htfy96, I'll try to find some time to get those into another Server Mono release, I appreciate your feedback.

I've added the missing symbols in this PR #22 and I'm creating a new release now.
