Linux instructions

With most desktop-oriented distributions, double-clicking the font file should be enough. If it isn’t (e.g., xubuntu), try this:

1. mkdir -p ~/.local/share/fonts

2. touch download.sh

3. # In download.sh
   for type in Bold Light Medium Regular Retina; do
       wget -O ~/.local/share/fonts/FiraCode-${type}.ttf \
       "https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode/blob/master/distr/ttf/FiraCode-${type}.ttf?raw=true";
   done

4. bash download.sh

5. fc-cache -f
