From c6779c57ced706477e74ee73d9b5a0cd14f98ecd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: rain Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2026 20:29:03 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] foot.ini: fix Maple Mono CN -> Maple Mono NF (was rendering Liberation Sans) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The font= line referenced 'Maple Mono CN', the CJK variant from a separate release zip we don't install. The repo only installs Maple Mono NF (Latin Nerd Font variant from subframe7536/Maple-font). foot silently falls back to the system sans font when the requested family is missing, so on every box except miche foot was rendering Liberation Sans (noto, dejavu, etc.) while looking like a working terminal. miche has both CN and NF installed from prior tinkering, which is why it was the only box where the bug was invisible. Every other config in this repo (nvim, wofi, waybar, mako) already uses 'Maple Mono NF' correctly. Only foot had the wrong suffix. Removed the 'Terminus:size=14' fallback — Terminus isn't installed either, so it was dead weight that also triggered foot to fall through to system default if Maple Mono CN failed to match. Verified: fc-match 'Maple Mono NF' now returns MapleMono-NF-Regular.ttf on tadbit (was: Liberation Sans). --- dot_config/foot/foot.ini | 18 +++++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/dot_config/foot/foot.ini b/dot_config/foot/foot.ini index 9e1ce53..91443e5 100644 --- a/dot_config/foot/foot.ini +++ b/dot_config/foot/foot.ini @@ -1,11 +1,19 @@ -# foot terminal — gruvbox dark, Maple Mono 14pt with Terminus fallback +# foot terminal — gruvbox dark, Maple Mono NF 14pt. # Reference: man foot.ini +# +# IMPORTANT: use `Maple Mono NF` (the Latin-only Nerd Font variant installed by +# run_once_20).
