Re: Warning "Font has limited support for character ranges" on every new window since yesterday

[LLoyd <lloydsensei+cygwin at gmail dot com>]

Hello.

I am using the .fon ones (http://font.gohu.org/gohufont-windows-2.0.zip)

I never tried to start mintty manually, I am using the standard
desktop shortcut which starts "C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe -i
/Cygwin-Terminal.ico -"

I just tried this:
mintty -o Font=gohufont-14 -
which does produce the warning as you can see in this screenshot:

I *did* remove my .minttyrc font setting prior to doing that test, so
"mintty -" does not produce any warning and "mintty -o
Font=gohufont-14 -" does produce a warning.

Do you think I should try another one? If yes, I can either test all
the installable ones or only one if you want me to test only one.

Regards,
Alexandre


PS: starting "mintty -o Font=GohuFont" or "mintty -o Font=gohufont"
fails with a "font not found, using a substitute" error
