[be5invis]

Done /blackflag and /heavyballotcross.

[geier]

I would love to see ✚ 'HEAVY GREEK CROSS' (U+271A) in Iosevka, several git/scm prompts for shells use it to signal that files have changed (example: https://github.com/olivierverdier/zsh-git-prompt).

The same goes for ✖ 'HEAVY MULTIPLICATION X' (U+2716).

[be5invis]

Done /bolt and /circlestar

[geier]

Awesome, thanks! In case we ever meet face to face, I'd love to invite you to a beer or two (or other beverages of your choice)!

[be5invis]

@geier well you may have to pay a lot of plane ticket cost

[ffigiel]

Hi! I'd like to request a hourglass character (u231b). I use it to indicate background jobs in my shell prompt.

[AndydeCleyre]

Hi,

For that rare but celebrated occasion when someone uses an interrobang (‽) (U+203D), it would be nice to have one in this amazing font. There's also a corresponding "inverted interrobang" or "gnaborretni" (⸘) (U+2E18).

The simple and straightforward route is to simply overlap the ! and ?, but in my opinion that too closely resembles a P or D or simply a smudged question mark to be semantically obvious at a glance. An image search indicates that there is some room for alternatives, such as these demonstrate:

• question mark with hat

• shared dot, angled paths

• layered interleaving

[geier]

I have some more symbol suggestions:

• inbox tray (U+1F4E5) 📥
• envelope (U+2709) ✉
• return symbol (U+23CE) ⏎
• paperclip (U+1F4CE) 📎
• page with curl (U+1F4C3) 📃
• ant (U+1F41C) 🐜
• lock (U+1F512) 🔒
• black universal recycling symbol (U+267B) ♻

I use those as tags in alot, a terminal based email program.

Also, I'd like to see any global symbol, such as GLOBE WITH MERIDIANS (U+1F310), EARTH GLOBE EUROPE-AFRICA (U+1F30D) or EARTH GLOBE ASIA-AUSTRALIA (U+1F30F), which I'd like to use in a calendar program as the symbol for 'change timezone'.

[be5invis]

@geier @demhydraz
Perhaps I should initiate a new project called “Imposed Iosevka” and provide a mechanism to add icon-like symbols into Iosevka, using the script in ryanoasis/nerd-fonts#83.

[be5invis]

Req: half-block triangles (◣◤◥◢)

[fitojb]

I would like to request the ISO/IEC/IEEE power symbols, in Unicode since version 9.0:

Power          U+23FB   ⏻
Power on/off   U+23FC   ⏼
Power on       U+23FD   ⏽
Power off      U+2B58   ⭘
Sleep mode     U+23FE   ⏾

[robertgzr]

How is #90 coming along? I would love to help out a little with these requests.

[leiserfg]

I love iosevka but i think that if a less esoteric language where used for making it (js or at most a classical lisp), more people could help to add glyphs.

[be5invis]

@leiserfg You can provide vectors...
I do not have much time on this project currently, maybe I should really make an API now.

[leiserfg]

A way to test the added glyph without needing to build the full typography can help too. "Let's do Iosevka awesome again" :D

[be5invis]

@leiserfg Well, there is a proposed font called WUGNER uses a publisher-subscriber pattern that allows us for partial building, but Iosevka is still made in the traditional way :(

[be5invis]

@jxy Will be completely done in 1.10.2 :)

Licsx.zip in Font

[AndydeCleyre]

Still in love with this font, thanks.

The interrobang looks great. It would be nice to have a matching inverted interrobang (⸘) (U+2E18).

[jxy]

Thanks for the great font. May I request for a couple of more symbols?

0x220a    ∊    SMALL ELEMENT OF
0x25ca    ◊    LOZENGE

In addition, can we have the star symbol and the circle at the same height and same size respectively in the following symbols:

0x233d    ⌽    APL FUNCTIONAL SYMBOL CIRCLE STILE
0x2349    ⍉    APL FUNCTIONAL SYMBOL CIRCLE BACKSLASH
0x25cb    ○    WHITE CIRCLE
0x2365    ⍥    APL FUNCTIONAL SYMBOL CIRCLE DIAERESIS
0x2296    ⊖    CIRCLED MINUS
0x235f    ⍟    APL FUNCTIONAL SYMBOL CIRCLE STAR
0x002a    *    ASTERISK
0x22c6    ⋆    STAR OPERATOR
0x2363    ⍣    APL FUNCTIONAL SYMBOL STAR DIAERESIS

[sergeevabc]

“Thin triangle”, please. Consolas has one as follows.

[be5invis]

@sergeevabc @dieggsy Added in 1.14.2

[madbence]

U+2630 ☰ Trigram for Heaven would be nice, it's used by airline in vim!

[4e6]

Request for ➜ heavy round-tipped rightwards arrow (U+279C)
It is used in some of the fish shell prompts, for example in robbyrussel

[sharpjs]

I would love a U+002A * Asterisk variant that is low and six-pointed, as in Menlo.

Iosevka with all the Menlo variants is my favourite font.

[skalyan91]

I would like U+2016 ‖ Double Vertical Line (which is used in IPA to indicate an intonational boundary), as well as the following dingbats that are used by Emacs Org mode for section headers:

U+2738 ✸ Heavy eight pointed rectilinear black star
U+273F ✿ Black florette

[Wulfsta]

I would like to second the request for blackboard bold characters that @jbaum98 suggested.

[mustaqimM]

💡 Electric Light Bulb U+1F4A1

[twse]

I would like to request the additions of some Abkhazian characters found in PF DIN Mono Pro.

[van-de-bugger]

I would like to have U+23CF EJECT SYMBOL. It is used by perl6 (rakudo) in error messages to report error position in the source.

[johnfraney]

For Python developers who use pipenv, it would be nice to have U+1F40D 🐍 SNAKE since it's shown during pipenv install.

[be5invis]

@johnfraney
To add Emoji support I need a serious designer... It should be better handled using font fallback (for Conhost, see microsoft/terminal#190)

[johnfraney]

@be5invis I did some more digging into fallback fonts and emoji support. After installing noto-fonts-emoji (on Arch Linux) I'm able to see the snake (🐍) in my terminal. Thanks very much for this font!

[tpapp]

I wonder if a lot of the Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols (U+1D400–U+1D7FF) that are just variations (eg bold and slant) on normal letters and digits (eg 𝐀) could just be generated as slight variations on the existing regular, italic and oblique fonts, with different weight. I use them in Julia code, eg 𝐱 for a vector.

[casheera]

Hi. Seems "Vertical Ellipsis" (U+22EE) is missed

[casheera]

And also would be nice to have Julia's ligature "<:"

[stale]

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.

[gnuvince]

I play a roguelike that uses WHITE SUN WITH RAYS (U+263c, ☼), which is not supported by Iosevka. Any chance that it could be added?

[danipozo]

I would like to second @tpapp's request for mathematical alphanumerical symbols, and I would love to see mathematical symbols added in general.

[be5invis]

I'd like to close this issue now.
For further character / symbol requests, please open separate issues.
