Question: 3 dashes ligature as solid line

Open maudrid opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Hi. I think I was using an older version of the font before. I got a new computer (Linux) and installed FiraCode. Now when I do 3 dashes "---", I can see that it converts it to a ligature, but it has a small space separating the dashes. On my other computer it creates a solid line. I like the solid line better for separating YAML blocks. Is there a way to return the previous behavior with the latest version of the font? In VSCode I have tried setting "editor.fontLigatures" to 'calt', but that did not work. Any advice would be appreciated.

No, it’s an unfortunate artefact of new implementation of “infinite arrows”. Maybe -- and --- deserve a hand-crafted ligature though
