sebastiencs/icons-in-terminal: Use any fonts in the terminal without replacing or patching

• icons-in-terminal allows you to get any fonts in your terminal without replacing or patching your font.
• You can add as many fonts as you want easily, you just need the ttf/odf file and add it to config.json.
• icons-in-terminal can also be use with graphical applications.

$ git clone https://github.com/sebastiencs/icons-in-terminal.git

To install icons-in-terminal, run:

$ ./install.sh  
$ # Follow the instructions to edit ~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d/30-icons.conf

Or if your terminal is supported (Experimental)

$ ./install-autodetect.sh 

Done ! You can start a new terminal and run print_icons.sh to see the installed gryphs.
You can see names of each icon by giving any parameter to print_icons.sh:

$ ./print_icons.sh
$ ./print_icons.sh --names
$ ./print_icons.sh --names | grep ANY_NAME

To use icons in your terminal, do not copy-paste icons from the output of print_icons.sh but use their variable name: see integrations.
When one of the provided font will be updated and add new icons, some codepoints in icons-in-terminal.ttf will be changed, the variable names won't.

If you want to add new font, follow these instructions:

There are a few dependencies to install:

• Python 3
• fontforge (with python extension)

You can add the name and path of your font to the file config.json.
Each font can take parameters:

• start-from: exclude all glyphes before the given codepoint.
• until: exclude all glyphes at the given codepoint and after.
• excludes: exclude the given codepoints.
• move-vertically: Use this parameter if your font and its glyphes are not centered vertically.
• short-name: Prefix to insert before the glyph name when you want to use the icon in your shell or anywhere else
• map-names: Define a name to the glyph. If not provided, the name will be read from the ttf file

Once done, you can run:

This project is inspired by awesome-terminal-fonts but is different.
I don't modify any existing font, I merge all glyphes from the provided fonts in a new font file and insert them in the private use areas.
The file ~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d/30-icons.conf tells to freetype to search the glyph in icons-in-terminal.ttf if it fails in your default font file. As the codepoints generated are in the private use areas, freetype should always fail and fallback to icons-in-terminal.ttf
The only requirement is that your default font shouldn't be already patched/modified. But why use a patched font with a limited number of glyphes when they are all included here :)
Your terminal emulator should also support fallback font (most of them support it)

There are already 3618 glyphes included:

To use icons-in-terminal with fish, add this line to ~/.config/fish/config.fish:

source ~/.local/share/icons-in-terminal/icons.fish

Restart a terminal, now you can print any icons with its name:

Add this line to your .bashrc:

source ~/.local/share/icons-in-terminal/icons_bash.sh

Restart a terminal, now you can print any icons with its name:

$ echo -e $oct_location # note the '-e'

Add this line to your emacs init file:

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.local/share/icons-in-terminal/")

To use icons-in-terminal in your package:

(require 'icons-in-terminal)
(insert (icons-in-terminal 'oct_flame)) ; C-h f icons-in-terminal[RET] for more info
