Pipe-Bracket and Pipe-Brace ligatures are confusing {| [| |] |}
Ligatures for pipe-bracket and pipe-brace combination are confusing. They appear to turn the pipe into a square bracket. This is especially pronounced in bold.
What I mean is:
-
{|looks like:{[ -
[|looks like:[[ -
|}looks like:]} -
|]looks like:]]
Here are screenshots of the markdown for above:
IMHO it's now even more confusing than before. Can't recognize whether it's a closing or opening brace. Both are looking on LCD monitor like a box:
Actually I liked the previous version much more. Very subjective, but maybe this were better? https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode/issues/643#issuecomment-415459368
Is it possible to revert this change? The previous versions were much clearer and I never had any trouble distinguishing [[ from [| etc. because the spacing between vertical bars was distinct enough - these new glyphs just look like really bad kerning :/
Not right now. Maybe eventually we’ll let everyone to configure their own font
In Ruby it's common to write list.each do {|item| puts item} and {| ends up looking pretty wonky.
Wondering what we can do to improve this?
Gotta remove it then. Thanks!

@tonsky Do you mean I should remove it (and rebuild a local version of the font) or do you mean we should remove it from the font in general?
Sorry for ambiguity. I will remove those in the next Fira Code version On Mon, 25 Mar 2019 at 00:28, Samuel Williams [email protected] wrote:

have same issue with reading own ruby code {| looks funny :)
But I am guessing there is no ideal solution, shape.
