Font

Which font are you using in your preview images in README.md ? Love the font almost as I love the theme!

I'm happy that you like it.

The font in the screenshots are actually 2 fonts glued together with Custom CSS. For normal style I used Hasklig and for italics Cartograph Mono CF.
I think there is a beautiful synergy between the two fonts and they intertwine naturally together.

I will add this bit of info in the README file.

Hi,
I have installed both fonts but I still cannot see any changes to my current setup. Can you please let me know what I should be doing here?

Thank you in advance.

My pleasure.

The walk-through is for Windows. I assume that for Unix and MacOS you would have to change only the path.

1. IMPORTANT: Run as aministrator VS Code
2. install Custom CSS and JS Loader
3. download or copy the content of customvscode.css
4. copy customvscode.css in C:\Users\your-own-username\. As an example this is what I have on my system: C:\Users\liviuschera\customvscode.css
5. In settings.json add:

     "editor.fontFamily": "Hasklig",
     "vscode_custom_css.imports":
       [
         "file://C:/Users/yourusername/vscodecustom.css"
       ],

6. press F1
7. Select Enable Custom CSS and JS
8. Reload VS Code (it doesn't have to be in administrator mode)

NOTES:

• if Code complains about that it is corrupted, simply click “Don't show again”
• every time after VS Code is updated or you change the configuration, please re-enable Custom CSS
• make sure that you comment out the optional CSS code if you don't want to change the UI's default font

I'll drop this into README file in the next release.

Have fun! :)

Hi there!

Please make sure you have followed step 4 from my walk-through and let me know if it works.

Cheers!

Hello, my friend. Try this:

3. The CSS code. I used the font "Cousine", cuz "Cartograph Mono CF" costs $40.
4. In settings.json add:

    "editor.fontFamily": "Fira Code",
    "editor.fontLigatures": true,
    "vscode_custom_css.imports":
      [
        "file:\\C:\\Users\\YourUserName\\customvscode.css"
      ],

P.S. ••• Hasklig is none relevent font, I recomended to you use Fira Code, PragmataPro or iosevka (these fonts supports 'ligatures' also).

Cheers! ✌️👍
