::< looks weird

[Veykril]

In Rust there is a so called turbofish operator which is used by generic function calls which makes use of the character sequence ::<. Unfortunately FiraCode causes this sequence to look a bit weird due to the font ligatures moving the middle colon up a bit:

I imagine this is due to the fact that :< is considered a ligature in the other category, but I wonder if it would be possible to have this behaviour reset for the ::< character case given that the two colons are just scoping operators here, assuming this is possible.

Thank you for reporting, I’ll take a look!

I found this yesterday too. I think it can be solved fairly easily by adding in an extra ignore to the center lookup (line 731):
ignore sub colon colon' [less greater]; # ignores the ::< case

@tonsky Any plans for a new release? It's a shame this patch has been merged for a few months and it's not out yet. No big deal either way, just curious.

[tonsky]

Yes, new release will come shortly

[jhpratt]

Awesome. Thanks for the quick response!
